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.

Argh!
Twice the mini-break up, but couldn't hold on.

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.
