Well done Ranah, thought she was going to lose it halfway through the decider (not watching the stream, just keeping an eye on the scoreboard)
So a guaranteed title

F:- Alice Gillan (GBR) WR532 v Ranah Stoiber (GBR) WR536 [6]

 Actually the points from Monzon will put her just into the top 500 on Monday, but this week's points will put her up around 470

Yes, that Monzon title last week has her live ranked 496 on 102 points for 26/05 and now guaranteed top 500 on Monday.

After the French Open fortnight, in the 09/06 rankings, she will add 10 or 15 points from here but will be dropping 12 points. So she will be at least 100 or 105 points then.

On 05/05 she was WR 621 with a CH 614.

Ranah ( CH 508 ) is live ranked 525 on 91 points.

She has nothing due off on 09/06 and clearly also 10 or 15 points to add from here, taking her to at least 101 or 106 points on 09/06, so she could very well be top 500 then.

Alice was very tight serving for the match for the third time, and again at 5-3 in the breaker (didn't see the first 2 attempts to serve out, but I note from the point by point that she had no matchpoints). Ranah was relatively composed when she got her chance to serve out.

What a turnaround !

Should ensure Ransh is top 500 post the French Open.
