The 14-year-old Donna le Roux, advanced to the semi-finals after beating the top-seeded Tayla Wilmott in the semi-finals.

Le Roux came back from a set down to beat Wilmott 3-6, 6-4 and 7-5 in the quarter-finals.

Le Roux told OFM Sport that she won’t change anything to her approach.

“The quarter-final was really tough, but to beat Tayla was a great privilege. Beating her also told me that I can play at that level.

“I'm just going to go into the semi-final with the same mindset. I'm just going to enjoy the semi-final and play my heart out.

“Then we will see what happens.”

Le Roux will face Arili Boshoff in the last four. The other semi-final will be played between Nadia Gouws and Celine Joseph.

In the singles for boys, the top-ranked Rohan Loubser, also got his marching orders after losing 7-6, 4-6 and 6-2 to Ernst Gouws.

Gouws will be up against Benedict Badza of Zimbabwe in the semi-finals.

The other boy’s semi-final will be played between the fourth-ranked Yarona Morule and the seventh-seeded Guy Vorwerk.
