 O'Brien WTA ranking of 145 will be boosted by her success |
Katie O'Brien's run at the Tashkent Open ended in the quarter-finals with a 6-2 6-3 loss to Olga Govortsova. The British number two, currently 145 in the world, has enjoyed a good week in Uzbekistan, reaching the last eight of a WTA Tour event for the first time.
But Belarussian third seed Govortsova, ranked 55th, proved too strong on the day for the Yorkshire 22-year-old.
O'Brien is still hoping to reach the final of the doubles with partner Akgul Amanmuradova from Uzbekistan.
