 And her first 3 match winning sequence, from blob's earlier post.

Technically, as she had won the first set before the RET, it should also count as a new CH best win, too; taking out her current WR1142

R32: (Q) Anna POPESCU (GBR) UNR defeated Mallaurie NOEL (FRA) 696 6-3 RET

R16: (Q) Anna POPESCU (GBR) UNRv. Katharina HOBGARSKI (GER) [2] 279 (CH 219, Aug. 2017)
Apart from a niggling recurring injury, I suggest Kat. Hobgarski would probably be pushing towards the top 100

Our internet went out at work (thanks Openreach !) so I missed a few hours.
Beth was getting near to a straight sets win at the time .......... cry

Well done Anna on getting a point smile

Anna gives us 13 women on one counter in addition to our 33 ranked players. There are none currently on 2 counters.

Of course the other route into rankings apart from 3 counters is at least 10 points. 12 for winning the tournament here. Simples

Anna has just lost her first set 4-6 against the 2nd seed. Lost yes, but she fared much, much better than I expected, and in fact had a BP to go up *5-4, but was unable to take it. She lost on the BPs 1/5 vs 2/6 and on points 33/38, but those stats are all much closer than I expected against the WR 279. Keep it up Anna!

Well Anna held out for 1hr 30, but after losing a long first service game that had a few deuces, the odds were then really stacked against her. Still a performance she can be proud of showing her ability to be competitive (on clay here) at a level at which she has not performed before. smile

R16: (Q) Anna POPESCU (GBR) UNR lost to Katharina HOBGARSKI (GER) [2] 279 (CH 219, Aug. 2017) 4-6 2-6

Aw! It's no, no to the Nono-win.
Anna went down, given the opposition, quite respectably.
