The 15 year Czech wild card who Fran lost to went on to win the final by a double bagel. Impressive.

Sara Bejlek beat the experienced Argentine player Paula Ormaechea in the final. She is the player who beat Jo and Laura in the 2013 Fed Cup play offs. Bejlek also beat the French player Diane Parry (who has also played in Grand Slam singles) in an earlier round.

Puts Fran's loss into context, a new clay court Wunderkind?

That's pretty amazing.

Sara B didn't do anything at Roehampton or Junior Wimbly (although that's grass, of course)

But she also lost in R2 at the recent clay elite juniors event in Milan

And didn't play junior RG for some reason

And did OK/well in some clay junior events before that, but not consistently

Fran does not appear this week in the W60 Versmold draw, so it looks as if she has decided to take a break.
