The boys wrap up the match by taking the second set by 6-2.  No wobble this time! smile

QF:  (WC) Pierre-Hugues Herbert & Nicolas Renavand (FRA/FRA) vs Jamie Murray & André Sá (BRA)

The Frog WCs saw off the third seeds, Paul Hanley & Dick Norman, by 7-6(4) 7-6(5) in the first round, so will be no pushovers.

A decent first work-out for Colin & Ross, who take the match by 4 & 5. smile

SF:  (4) Colin Fleming & Ross Hutchins vs (2) Lukas Dlouhy & Marcelo Melo (CZE/BRA)

That'll be a rather sterner test! wink

Squeaky bum time in Metz:  Jamie & André stand at 3-6 6-3 at the moment.  Let's hope they can do a "Lewis & George"!

And they ease over the finishing line in the MTB by 10-5. smile  Kas & Peya, the top seeds, or de Schepper & Clément in the semi.

Jamie & André beware:  Kenny & Arnaud are men on a mission, having beaten Kas & Peya by 6-1 7-6(3)! ( )...

They are the fifth and final match tomorrow - the third is not before 5pm BST . Colin has good memories of this tournament, providing his maiden ATP title (with Ken) a couple of years ago
