Maia Lumsden, the 14-year-old from Glasgow, earned her first world ranking points at senior level when she won her final qualifying round match at the AEGON Pro-Series $25,000 Challenger at Scotstoun, Glasgow, yesterday.

She trounced Fatma Al-Nahbani, the second seed in the qualifying competition from Oman, 6-3, 6-0. One break of serve was all she needed to take the first set against a player with a world ranking of No.463 and Al-Nahbani's game then collapsed under relentless pressure from the young Scot. The win earns Lumsden a tie against England's Lisa Whybourn, the world No.298, in the main draw today.

Lumsden, delighted with her win and her first world ranking points at senior level, said that her plan had been "to be tactically smart and that had worked well". She added: "I loved the experience of playing on the show court especially in my home town and am looking forward to playing in my first Challenger main draw."

Lumsden, who trains at the National Tennis Centre at Stirling University and attends the nearby Beaconhurst School, has enjoyed a successful year in junior competition across Europe this year which have earned her the No.1 spot in the Tennis Europe 14 & Under rankings. She led Great Britain to success in the European Summer Cup in Italy, the girls' team championships while, at the World Championships in Czech Republic, Great Britain were runners-up to Slovakia.

Glasgow's Jamie Baker, seeded No.2 in the men's Futures event, was a 6-2, 6-2 winner over England's Sean Thornley and plays Yannick Ebbinghaus, of the Netherlands, in the second round today.

Broughty Ferry-based Nicholas Rosenzweig, a student at Stirling University, had a three-set win over Clay Crawford, winner of the ITF junior event in Edinburgh this summer. He plays the No.8 seed, Neil Pauffley of England, in the second match on the show court today, starting around 11.30am, followed by Lumsden and then Baker.

Play starts at 10am and entry to the spectators' stand is free.
