Week 21 - ITF ($10K) - Hammamet, Tunisia - Clay


Wow, that's an extremely good performance from young Fran. She seems a very, very promising talent. Next match up could be rather more of a step up though, as it's potentially the #1 seed, who is due to play soon.

Eventually it is confirmed that Fran will lay the #1 seed, who did not have things all her own way today against a player ranked #1041. Still this would be a tough ask for Fran to go further here tomorrow.

R2: (q) JONES, Francesca (GBR) UNR beat KLYUEVA, Ekaterina (KAZ) 1221 CH=556 2/3/15 6-1 6-0
QF: (q) JONES, Francesca (GBR) UNR vs (1) POZNIKHIRENKO, Ganna (UKR) 424 (CH 305 28/07/2014)

She's only gone and done it, 6-2,6-4, through to the SFs, and 11 ranking points and 11/10.

That was a triple snap! Fran J and Emmanuelle Girard beat the #2 seeds by the way, and now play the conquerors of the 4th seeds in the SF.

Fran lost the first set 6-2, but given the length so far, and I see she has had a couple of BPs, looks a battling performance.

I noted bet365 were only prepared to offer her at 3/1 to win the second set ( Poznikhirenko 2/9 ) and 9/1 the match at the conclusion of the first set, so that's pretty respectful.

Unfortunately lost her initial service game in the second set ( now 5/1 to win this set )

2-6 0-1*
