He is now 4-1 and serving. Can he capitalise on a double break in the final set?

That's actually a better win than it looks on paper: Sabau has a CH of 74, albeit back in 2005. And while he's down at 527 in the rankings now, that's from only about 5 months of play, so he's no doubt pretty underranked.

Nice work Smet smile

Slabba has lost the first set against Vagnozzi 6-1 - yet to hold his serve. Ominous...
