 Much to the umpires relief I would imagine

Looks as though she'll face the Belgian second seed, Alison van Uytvanck, in the SF.

The Belgian was leading by 6-1 4-2 the last time I noticed & it's now disappeared off the Bet365 site, so I presume she won.

Well done to Anna, a very good comeback. 

I feel this is a very important year for Anna, who has not progressed as she would have hoped over the last few years, wth ongoing injury issues seeming to be a major problem.  To my mind she is still poentially a top 250 player, and should at least be looking this year to get back to her CH of WR 318, which she achieved in June 2008 when not long turned 19.
