No. 2 seed Hurricane Tyra Black has advanced to the final of the new ITF Grade 1 in Nottingham, defeating unseeded Katrina Scott 6-1, 6-2 in today's semifinals. Black has lost only 13 games total in her four matches this week. She will play No. 4 seed Sada Nahimana of Burundi for the title Saturday. The boys final will feature unseeded 16-year-old Jack Pinnington Jones of Great Britain against No. 3 seed Shintaro Mochizuki of Japan.

All four Americans in the qualifying at the Grade 1 in Roehampton advanced to Saturday's final round, with Andres Martin[11], Will Grant[5], Charlotte Owensby[5] and Alexandra Yepifanova[8] all winning their matches today in straight sets.

At the ATP 250 in Eastbourne, two Southern Californians will meet for the title, with Sam Querrey taking on Taylor Fritz. It's Querrey's first ATP final in 16 months, and for Fritz, just the second of his career. Fritz, 21, made the final of the Memphis ATP event when he was 18, and he reveals in this ATP article how long that three-year stretch between finals has seemed to him.
