Brilliant! Won't she now regain a ranking?
Yes - when the points go on, a week on Manday.
Fran will still have to use her PR for a while, until she can get direct entry into events.
I think she gets 9 points for reaching the QF, which is one point short of a ranking.

Fran and Carlota are in a first set tiebreak.
Ah, 7-6(5) *4-5
Still as many breaks as holds in the match with unfortunately the latest 2 breaks being in favour of Cirez. 7-6(5) 4-6
