Good stuff from Pippa. More a renewed star, given the prospect she looked a few years ago. Very early days still, but hopefully a good sign of things to come. Beating Lucy Brown in R1 was a good marker.

Anyway, only 24 GB women have more than the 4 ranking points she has so far earned this week. Of course, does need 3 scores ( or at least 10 points ) to achieve an official ranking.

Pity about the other 3 after each having competitive first sets. In particular, I hope Anna Smith is relatively OK after being out for so long.

Anna Smith has not retired - Jade has just tweeted it is into a third set and Anna is a break up - 3-1.

I'm assuming the reason for Anna's premature retirement was probably that the betting guy processing the scores had probably retired for his tea ;)

Anna won 5-7 6-2 6-2 to ensure at least one British semifinalist. It also means that the only non-seeds left (Anna and Pippa) are British. Incidentally Pippa's 2010 Nationals success (which included a win over Lucy) was on hard courts at the NTC not here. Pippa has an ambitious target of WTA 500 according to an article I read earlier in the year

 Thanks for correcting me, for some reason I thought they used to play the national junior comps down in Bournemouth.

Thanks, David, I assume you are there.

It was very sweet of Jade to tweet a correction when we thought all was lost!

 I'm 250 miles away LOL - sorry if the reference to 'here' fooled you -  the results are on the LTA drawsheet

Regarding Philwrig's comment all the younger age groups were played at the West Hants club in that year, but not the under 18s
