P.S.  Their opponents in the semi-final will be either the fourth seeds, Pierre-Ludovic Duclos & Alexandre Kudryavstev (CAN/RUS), or Michael Berrer & Hiroki Kondo (GER/JPN).

Well done Flemski and it will be Berrer/Kondo in Semis with the match first up at Noon local time

Will take them both past Jamie on Monday as he has 250! points coming off

When was the last time that Flemski actually won a match without needing the match tiebreak? I'm sure it can't be that long ago, but I can't think of a match since they beat the Bryans where they haven't needed to go all the way.

At least they keep winning them, but it would make it so much easier if they could just win in straight sets for once!

Got a great chance of the title here, so if they can get over their finals record which isn't great, then they could be on the verge of making the top 100.

7-6(2) 6-2 against Duclos/Lacko in the Manchester Challenger semis, the last match they won before this week. They also won their first two match in Pozoblanco in straight sets.

They have played a lot of MTBs recently though, that's for sure - since they won the Cremona Challenger in late May, their last 20 results have been:

6 straight sets wins
8 MTB wins
1 five set loss
4 MTB losses
1 straight sets loss

Just 1 straight sets loss in 20 matches, to Booty & Lipsky in the Nottingham Challenger Final, adds to the impression that they're a couple of damn good fighters! smile.gif
