She lost the first set 2/6 but battled back to take the second 6/3.

In a championship tie-break she fought back from 2/6 down to win the match 11/9.

Laura then demolished Phillipa Fulchini in the final 6/1, 6/0.

She also made the final of the Ladies Singles after a 6/1, 6/2 success over Claire Wallace in the last four.

She took the title with a straight sets 6/1, 6/1 success against Yuki Yanai.
