Robson claims rare top-100 scalp
Laura Robson won a silver medal with Andy Murray in the mixed doubles at London 2012Former British number one Laura Robson has earned her first win against a player ranked in the top 100 for nearly three years.
The 22-year-old beat world number 65 Varvara Lepchenko 6-4 6-1 in qualifying for the Aegon Classic in Birmingham.
The Briton's last victory against a top-100 player came against the Czech Republic's Klara Koukalova in Beijing in September 2013.
"I didn't have a lot of confidence going into the match," admitted Robson.
"I haven't won a lot recently but I know how well I've been playing on the practice court and it was just a matter of translating that into a match.
