Brits lose in quarters
Katie O'Brien was surprisingly dumped out of the quarter-finals of the $25,000 event in Mauritius.
The British No 4 had only dropped three games on her way to reaching the last eight but was crushed 6-1 6-1 by home hope Marinne Giraud in Phoenix.
Emily Webley-Smith did not fare much better in her last-eight encounter against second seed Ayumi Morita in Kolkata, going down 6-2 6-2.
