Such a rich picking in British winnings Smile

http://www.lta.org.uk/News/All-news-items/2010-02-15/Keothavong-reaches-Memphis-semis/

Ross Hutchins and Jordan Kerr (AUS) are through to the semi-finals of the men’s doubles in Memphis following their 6-2, 6-4 win over Michael Kohlmann (GER) and Jarkko Nieminen (FIN).

The British-Australian pairing defeated the world doubles ranked no.3 team and Australian Open semi-finalists in a little over the hour mark to set up a semi-final clash against the American pair of Scott Lipsky and David Martin.

No.4 seeds Lipsky and Scott edged out Eric Butorac (USA) and Rajeev Ram (USA) 4-6, 7-6(5), 10-7 whilst John Isner (USA) and Sam Querrey (USA) take on 2009 champions Mardy Fish (USA) and Mark Knowles (BAH) in the other semi-final.

Alex Bogdanovic is through to the quarter-finals of the €106.5k ATP Challenger in Belgrade after a 6-3, 6-4 victory over Serbian Filip Krajinovic.

With the straight sets defeat of the wildcard entrant in 1 hour 20 minutes, the British no.2 now faces Polish opposition in the last eight in the form of Michal Przysiezny.

Jamie Delgado and Illija Bozoljac (SRB) are in to the semi-finals of the doubles in Belgrade after a 6-3 7-6(4) victory over Andrey Golubev (KAZ) and Alexandre Sidorenko (FRA).

The duo now play the Croatian pair of Mario Ancic and Lovro Zovko on Friday and are due on court after Bogdanovic’s singles quarter-final match not before 4.30 pm local time (3.30 pm GMT).

Chris Eaton and Dominic Inglot will meet each other in the quarter-finals of the $15k event in Sarajevo after victories over Damir Dzumhur (BIH) and Blaz Rola (SLO) respectively.

No.6 seed Eaton won 6-4, 6-3 and will now battle it out with doubles partner Inglot who won 6-3, 6-4 in his last 16 match.



Hey I just suddenly realised that Mario Ancic is playing again !  I thought he left tennis for a career in law, something which I thought was a great shame.  It would be wonderful to see him playing well again.  He is such a skillful and graceful player.

He did get a job in law. I think we was getting some experience in case incase he couldn't return to the tour.

Great stuff from Smethurst. Into his 2nd consecutive final. yay

If he does as well as Evans in Bath and Jersey he'll definetely be ranked higher than him on the 4th of April.

Good news.

Seeing how Evans partially choked in the last Davis Cup rubber (losing 6-0 third set against a guy ranked 250 places below him), it would be good to see someone else taking his place.

Thanks.  That is good to hear. Let's hope he will translate this to senior successes in future years.

I don't think Ash will be beating seeds in Grand Slams in his senior career, but he has the potential to reach top 3 or 4 hundred.
