Henry into the semis, but also in doubles as well

Good to see Henry having a good week after the disappointment of last week

And if you're going to choose, better to do well in the J100, rather than the J60

Max lost his QF 6-3 6-4 which is a respectable score against the 3rd seed

In the dubs SF:

Henry & Joe M v FRA/FRA

Luke Hooper & SUI v Finbar Mcgarvey & SUI

Excellent effort from Hollie Smart (2009), only losing 4-6 in the third against the top seed Hannah Read who is nearly top-100

Sophie Bekker (2008) pushed 4th seed Dani P to three sets too, so well done to her too

Allegra's good form continues, but it's Hanna Rylatt who gets the star mention for putting out the second seed, from CZE, ranked 124

In the doubles SFs:

Hannah R x 2 v DEN/BEL

Edie Griffiths & Isabella Wlaker v Brooke Black & CZE

Very good run from Henry, living up to his ranking and standing as our best player here

Wins his SF 6-2 6-2

Now has the top seed to contend with in the final though

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

It's a Hannah R x 2 show in the final

Hannah Read (2006) def. Dani P (2007) 4-6 6-3 6-2

Hannah Rylatt (2006) def. Allegra K Davies (2007) 6-4 3-6 6-3

Even at this stage, it's net new points for both girls

Hannah Read will replace a 36 counter, for a 60 if she loses and a 100 if she wins

And Hannah Rylatt will replace a 20 counter but has a 36 counter rolling off so will effectively replace the 36 points (and this is already her biggest counter, even if she loses, which is great)

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

And Henry will have a nice boost, as he has several 20s on his score sheet so the 60 or 100 here will stand him in good stead

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

In the boys dubs SF:

Henry & Joe M LOST to FRA/FRA

Luke Hooper & SUI def. Finbar Mcgarvey & SUI

So it's good luck to Luke in the final

In the girls doubles SFs:

Hannah R x 2 LOST to DEN/BEL

Brooke Black & CZE def. Edie Griffiths & Isabella Wlaker

So it's good luck to Brooke in the final

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Final: (2) Henry Jefferson def. (1) Chan 6-4 6-4

Well done, Henry - always good to finish by taking out the top seed

Very good week, in the higher rated event.

Final: (6) Hannah Rylatt def. (1) Hannah Read 6-2 6-1

Another one who wins by beating the top seed

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Brooke and partner take the girls' doubles title

Unfortunately, Luke Hooper+ lost theirs
