Girls: 2024 European Summer Cups - U12/U14/U16/U18
Permalink  

This weekend sees the start of the European Summer Cups, with the qualifying rounds for the under 14s.  Their ultimate goal is a place in the World Junior finals in August.  The British team (Danielle Britton, Megan Knight and Liv Zingg ) are in a qualifying group in France, and have started well with a commanding victory over Belgium.   Megan won 6-1 6-0 and Danielle 6-2 6-2 this morning for a winning 2-0 lead. Victory over Portugal or Latvia (who have a top 5 ranked player) tomorrow would gain qualification for the European finals next weekend.

A comfortable victory against Portugal means the under 14 girls book their place in the finals in Italy at the weekend. Megan won 6-2 6-1 and Daniella 6-3 6-2, before Daniella and Liv lost the dead doubles. They take on Austria tomorrow for seeding rights in the finals.

The doubles was equally emphatic, but not the way we would have hoped. We play Romania tomorrow who, in rankings terms are the strongest of the 4 beaten quarter-finalists. The winners of that match will also go through to the World Junior finals

Katerina Zajickova lost to Megan Knight 2-6 2-6
Jana Kovackova beat Daniella Britton 6-0 6-2
Kovackova/Zajickova beat Britton/Knight 6-1 6-1

 Almost feels like our under 16 team is stronger than our 18s - or am I wrong?
