Some updates of the 7 events with British interest remaining (3 titles so far )
J100 Johannesburg (South Africa)
Final with Sophie Bekker should have been played yesterday, but no update on ITF
J100 Barcelona (Spain)

J30 Cluj Napoca (Romania)
All British interest ended yesterday
J30 Megrine (Tunisia)
Sophie Ryland and Francesca Tye are through to the doubles final
We have a fourth title this week as in the J30 Megrine (Tunisia) Sophie Ryland wins her second ITF doubles title, this time in partnership with Francesca Tye, whose success was her maiden one.
In Merzig (Germany) Dylan Davies remains on course for the double after a bizarre 6-0 0-6 7-6(7) victory in the semis
Actually that was the fifth title. In the J30 Skopje Casey Mauro had won the doubles with her Cypriot partner on Friday.
Thanks Lambda. I notice she also won a round of singles as a wildcard (which is why I was unaware of her involvement)
Dylan Davies lost the Merzig final 7-5 6-3 so hopes of a singles title rest with Sophie Bekker, but I imagine that the ITF page will not be updated until tomorrow
