CiCi Bellis' doubles quarterfinal against the top seeds in the girls 18s at the Orange Bowl was suspended at 5-5 on Friday.
Bellis, 14, of Atherton and Katerina Stewart of Miami are scheduled to resume their match against Varvara Flink of Russia and Ivana Jorovic of Serbia today in the prestigious junior tournament on clay in Plantation, Fala.
Of the three Northern Californians entered in the Orange Bowl, Bellis is the only one remaining. She and Michaela Gordon, 14, of Los Altos Hills lost in the first round of girls 18 singles, and Lane Leschly, 15, of Atherton fell in the opening round of boys 16 singles.
Gordon and Anna Bondar of Hungary lost in the second round of girls 18 doubles to Flink and Jorovic. Leschly, the grandson of former Danish Davis Cup veteran Jan Leschly, did not play doubles.
Atherton and Los Altos Hills are located near Stanford University in the San Francisco Bay Area.
