Biography

An under-18s national champion, Laval competed in the women's singles main draw of every French Open from 1987 to 1991.[1] In the first two years she also played in the juniors and was a girls' doubles finalist at the 1988 French Open, partnering Julie Halard.

Laval, who also featured twice at the Australian Open, represented the France Federation Cup team in 1988, for a World Group tie against West Germany. She made her only appearance in the doubles rubber, with Catherine Suire, which they lost in three sets to Isabel Cueto and Eva Pfaff.[2]

During her time on the professional tour she reached a best singles ranking on tour of 139 in the world. She was a quarter-finalist at Bayonne in 1990 and twice reached the quarter-finals at Palermo, in 1990 and 1991. These runs included two wins over players ranked in the world's top-50, Rachel McQuillan in Bayonne and Raffaella Reggi at the 1991 Palermo Open.

gollark: You could hardcode one diagonal and two of the normal lines and rotate it I think.
gollark: Ask them to send you a 3080 to test on.
gollark: I guess that might work as a way to show the maximum possible value/overhead from sending data to the GPU.
gollark: Arguably true bogocalc would be picking results (according to some kind of weird random distribution which technically has a chance of picking any possible number) until they can be verified to be right.
gollark: For speed, lz4. For general compatibility and relative simplicity, DEFLATE. For performance and decent ratio, zstd.
