British schoolgirl Hannah Klugman missed out on reaching the main Wimbledon draw as she lost her final qualifying match.
The 15-year-old, who grew up playing tennis close to the All England Club, was beaten 6-3 6-3 by American Alycia Parks.
Klugman, ranked 623rd in the world, needed one more victory to seal her place at Wimbledon, which starts on Monday.
She broke early in the first set, but could not maintain the momentum against her 23-year-old opponent, who is ranked 402 places higher.
There was better news for Britain’s Sonay Kartal, 22, who qualified with a 6-3 6-1 win over Russia’s Erika Andreeva.
Meanwhile GB’s Amarni Banks, 21, was beaten 6-3 6-0 by Canadian Marina Stakusic
