 Baltacha has been tipped to reach the world's top 100 |
Elena Baltacha's run at the Incheon Women's Challenger tournament in Korea ended with defeat in the semi-finals. The former British number one is trying to battle her way back up the rankings after dropping out of the top 500 because of a run of injuries.
The Scot won three qualifying matches and then three rounds in the proper tournament in Korea.
However, the 23-year-old was beaten 6-4 3-6 7-5 by 19-year-old Korean Ye-Ra Lee in her last-four match.
