Heather Watson has defeated Pauline Parmentier in straight sets to progress through to the semi-finals of the Japan Open.
The 20-year continued her impressive form in Asia with a 7-5 6-3 victory over her French opponent in just under two hours.
She will now face Japan's Misaki Doe for a place in the final.
Watson's win also guarantees her a place in the world's top 60 when the WTA rankings are released next week.
