 I have actually seen Andre play in the UK - but not Emilie, unsurprisingly.

Chiswick W25, August 2019, lost to Emily Appleton in a final set tie-break.

Emilie+ in a real battle here. *4-5, and 5 games have gone to the deciding poit, and three to 30. Could go either way.
The other semi-final was a walkover as Mio and Mao Mushika withdrew, both having lost tough 3-setters in the singles earlier.
