Quite right 

And with British flights banned into Russia, and Aeroflot flights banned into the UK, I think the others will only be a matter of time before they withdraw too (not to mention ethical issues)

Straight sets win for Isabelle and into the semi final and still going in the doubles. Expect a significant ranking jump next week.

Strange to get a lucky loser versus a qualifier in a QF. But shows the relevance, or not, of junior rankings

She'll now play the top seed, JWR 35, WTA 743

Tough ask but will be interesting.

Certainly a big jump in rankings coming.

Phoenix will pick up net +18pts for singles and either +91 or +136. Doubles divided by 4.
Should be around the top 150

Isabelle will pick up min net +82 and +38 for doubles.
Should move her inside top 180.

Good effort by Isabelle giving the top seed her toughest test so far (incidentally the rise of Czech junior players is mirrored in a Czech girl Lucie Havlickova reaching the final of the year's first non Grand Slam Grade A in Brazil this week)

SF

(1) Dominika Salkova (CZE) d. (Q) Isabelle Lacy 7-5 7-6(5)
