15-Apr-05:
Shabana Shakes Seedings
In Vancouver
 Shabana Khan came from a game behind to beat US compatriot Louisa Hall in
the quarter-finals of the Vancouver International in Canada - creating an
upset according to the seedings, but a confirmation of her higher position
in the latest WISPA World rankings.
Khan, the fifth seed who is currently ranked 59 in the world, despatched
third seed Hall, ranked five places lower, 1-9 9-3 9-2 9-3.
The Seattle-based 36-year-old now takes on Mexico's top seed Samantha
Teran, a 10-8 9-6 3-9 9-7 victor over Canada's Carolyn Russell.
Single-handedly carrying local interest through to the semi-finals is
Vancouver-based No2 seed Melanie Jans Burke, who beat fellow Canadian
Lauren Wagner 9-2 10-8 9-2. Jans Burke faces Guyana's sixth seed Nicolette
Fernandes for a place in the final.
