Shepperton’s Charlotte Pearce was U18 singles runner-up at the Aegon Junior Grand Prix Masters at the National Tennis Centre in Roehampton.

The 16-year-old was beaten 6-1 6-3 by Harrogate’s Ellie Makin in the final but enjoyed the experience.

“I think it was a good match, I probably could have improved in some areas but overall it was a good,” said Pearce.

“I played well and really enjoyed the game. Ellie deserved the win as she was the better player.”
