–

Rabat ends up the winner of the “last week before RG Survivor” contest, with the No. 1, No. 2, No. 4 and No. 6 seeds remaining into the quarterfinals.

That included top seed Trevisan and No. 2 Stephens.

In Strasbourg, the top seed remaining was No. 4 Bernarda Pera. And her mission Thursday was be to eliminate the final Frenchwoman remaining, Clara Burel. Mission not accomplished.
