Tennis: Mikheeva one match from milestone in Bournemouth
Anastasia said: “The final against Georgie will be difficult. I played her in the Winter Masters and it was a three-set battle, so I am in no doubt that it will be a great match.”
In reaching the final Anastasia first dispatched a qualifier 6-1, 6-0 then showed resilience to pull through a couple of three-setters which contrasted with her relatively comfortable win over the top seeded Tomkins.
Edinburgh’s Alexandra Hunter, last year’s ten-and-under champion, battled through three qualifiers but lost her opening tie to the sixth seed.
