Ronald HOHMANN (USA) 2-6 Default George DAVIS (GBR) [5]

QF:

Blu BAKER (GBR) [2] 6-2 6-4 Julian Noah STEINHAUSEN (USA)

Don't know quite what happened with George D ..... won the first set and then got defaulted??? He retired in his doubles too (or his pair did, at any rate)
Blu is through to the semis in the dubs too.

The Optimist · ATP qualifying

In the States they often use 'Default' for walkover or retirement, so suspect that rather than throwing his racquet at someone or similar!!

In the shortened version to accomodate the weather, Blu couldnt' quite manage the double but came pretty close.
