If they've beaten the French team (the girls with the horrible long names ), doesn't that mean they're in the QFs?

Although I'm a bit confused, I thought from the ticker board that the match against the French team hadn't even been played yet....

 Tickerboard was not correct. the itf junior website showed all results. Doubles round 4 and qf took place today

Always nice to cause a bit of a stir

From the official event site:

13:45 - BRITISH GIRLS MARCH ON

There's been a trio of impressive wins by British girls this morning: Hannah Klugman continued her progress at the 14&U event in Most, ousting tenth seed Angelica Sara (ITA) 7-5 6-1. At the 16&U event in Prerov, Mingge Xu upset second seed Rose Marie Nijkamp 7-6(3) 6-3. And in Klosters Ella McDonald (pictured) has yet to lose a set, today beating Dimitra Pavlou (GRE) 6-1 6-2.

As David rightly predicted, this is a really big ask for Ella

The Swiss girl plays a very nice, aggressive game for clay, quick on her feet too

Ella lost the first set 2-6

Ella went 4-0 up in the second set, playing some nice tennis and causing her opponent to start shrieking

And then the Swiss girl played a bit better but Ella sort of capitulated and lost 6 games on the trot, which is pretty poor

Lost 2-6 4-6

Fair score but she should have at least managed to force that second set a little more when she was leading so well - had plenty of chances

Celine Naef has just won her semi in straight sets so will take on top seed Andorra's Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva (WTA154), frequently mentioned in this section, in the final
