Well done, Em.

Good stuff. Emily's parting European tour is continuing to go pretty well ( and she's entered for at least the next 2 weeks as well taking her to 7 ITF weeks in a row ).

Last week's final should take her into the top 600 for the first time this coming Monday and so far a further net 3 points increase ( 4 - 1 ) should have her up to probably about WR 570.

Would be a very nice sign off if she made the top 500 before she crosses the pond.

Emily did regroup, and raced out to a 3-0 lead in set 2, but back came the Italian again, 5-7 3-2*
And then there was an MTO...

But Emily dug in, and broke back as the top seed served for the match!

Another twist, as Emily is broken again, and will need to hit back again to get to a TB.
5-5 5-6*

Argh!
Twice the mini-break up, but couldn't hold on.
*0-0
1-0*
1-1*
*2-1
*3-1
3-2*
3-3*
*4-3
*4-4
5-4*
5-5*
*5-6 MP
*5-7

But, a good week, and this was always going to be a tough task against a good $10K level player. Two close sets over 2 hours, despite the leads that were conceded in both sets, is still a good effort.

SF: Emily ARBUTHNOTT (GBR) [4] 645 lost to Cristiana FERRANDO (ITA) [1] 319 5-7 6-7(5)

She's certainly playing well within top-500 level. A very impressive run - this is her first time doing a concerted run of 10Ks, no?
