Good win for Jodie who meets another Italian in the semis. Alastair benefited from a retirement (because of flu if I understood the Italian report correctly)

Yes, good stuff from Jodie, reaching the singles SF and reaching the doubles final, knocking out the top seeds.

F: (3) Burrage & Bilardo (ITA) vs (4) Kauijer & Lebedzeva (NED/NED)

Currently JWR 116 ( CH 100 ), I think this week so far may already have her into the top 100

Brilliant win by Alastair, in a baseline duel (according to the match report) against a player who beat him en route to a G2 title recently. His semi-final opponent has won a handful of Futures matches, and Alastair will need to find a way past him to have any chance of a DA for Roland Garros as he lost out in the doubles semis

QF

(6) Alastair Gray d. (16) Andrea Guerrieri (ITA) 6-3 7-6(5)

SF

(6) Alastair Gray v (7) Mattias Siimar (EST)

Great stuff from Jodie who in just over an hour comfortably beat an opponent who had won 20 consecutive matches at lower grades a few months ago - and followed up with the doubles title. She plays her partner (who has been ranked as high as 850 WTA) in the singles final. Unfortunately no joy for Alastair in singles or doubles (where the ITF reversed his semi)

Boys SF

(7) Mattias Siimar (EST) d. (6) Alastair Gray 6-3 6-3

Doubles F

Berrettini/Guerrieri (ITA) d. (2) Gray/Kazakov (GBR/RUS) 2-6 6-2 [10-6]

Girls SF

Jodie Anna Burrage d. Lisa Piccinetti (ITA) 6-2 6-3

F

(7) Federica Bilardo (ITA) v Jodie Anna Burrage

Doubles F

(3) Burrage & Bilardo (ITA) d. (4) Kauijer & Lebedzeva (NED/NED) 7-6 6-2

Jodie should rise to around JR65, probably good enough for DA to Roland Garros Juniors man draw.
