British teenager Laura Robson continued a fantastic run of form as she beat seventh seed Peng Shuai to claim her place in the last four of the Guangzhou International Open. 

Robson, who won a silver medal playing with Andy Murray in the mixed doubles at the London 2012 Olympics, broke her Chinese opponent three times, including a telling break in game 12, and sealed the victory 7-5, 5-7, 6-2 in the three-hour games.

The youngest player in WTA's top 100 defeated another Chinese home favorite, the second-seeded Zheng Jie, 6-3, 6-3 in Wednesday's games.

Robson burst onto the senior scene in a major way with her win over Kim Cjijsters and Li Na at the US Open weeks ago, which helped propel her into the top 75 in the world.
