Burrage admits sympathy for injured opponent in Surbiton victory
Kingston's Jodie Burrage admitted she had sympathy for her opponent and sixth-seeded Mihaela Buzarnescu, who was forced to pull out of their quarter-final match at the LTA's Surbiton Trophy due to injury. Burrage — who is on the LTA's Pro Scholarship Programme, the highest level of support for players aged 16-24 — was trailing 3-6 2-1 when former top 20 player Buzarnescu was forced to retire after injuring her knee two points earlier.
