Charlotte Holmes has got a LL spot in the main draw (there are three LL spots, so she'd have been unlucky to have missed out)

In France this week there is also one of the world top U-12 events, the Boulogne-Billancourt Tennis TCBB OPEN 10-12 event

A lot of our top players have taken part in this along the way in their tennis journies and past winners include names such as Rune and Ostapenko

Mind you, on the GB list, past winners include Vlada Kozak, Ross Tire Wilson, Anastasia Mikhheva ......

However, this week, Ginny Chen is representing GB interest in the girls, and has made the last 16

As have Pekko Pfundstein and Oskar LASKOWSKI in the boys

Better and better.....

Boulogne-Billancourt Tennis TCBB OPEN 10-12

Ginny Chen and Oskar Laskowski are through to the SFs

Ginny (who was runner-up in the U11 nationals in 2023) has a nice game - she's quite a tall girl, decent technique, takes care with her footwork, there's a lot to like in her game

Huge well done to Oskar - I've been reading up about him and his two brothers - but haven't watched any of his matches live - partly because I haven't been able to figure out from the Facebook page which match is being shown, what the score is etc, and I don't really know what Oskar looks like. But tomorrow, with the semis, it should be easier (less matches, less possible confusion) so will try and catch some of it

However, Enrico & Dan are through to the semis in doubles (partly thanks to a QF walkover)
