Briton Anna Fitzpatrick saw her good run in the Wimbledon girls' singles come to an end in the semi-finals against 16-year-old Urszula Radwanska.

Fitzpatrick, 18, won two singles matches on Friday to reach the final, as well as a second-round doubles tie.

She recovered an early break against Radwanska but lost 7-6 (7-3) 6-3.

Fitzpatrick and Jade Curtis then lost 7-6 (7-1) 6-2 to third seeds Sandra Roma and Nikola Hofmanova in the girls' doubles quarter-finals.

"I'm really disappointed about losing today but it's been a good tournament, especially being my last junior tournament," said Fitzpatrick.

"I can take a lot of confidence from it. I managed to turn it around and to be fair to her, she played pretty good.

"I was a little bit nervous but as soon as I got into it I was alright."

And of the shoulder problem, she added: "Yesterday I fell and landed on my shoulder.

"I saw the physio yesterday and she massaged it a bit but told me it would be stiff today, and she was helping me on court again."
