Fletch seem to be playing lights out tennis and take the first set 6-1. Unfortunately the light are out on the stream and although there is sound there is no picture.

The boys certainly seem to be back in the groove & on course for a relatively straightforward QF win:  *3-2 in the second set. smile

Easy peasy:

QF:  Colin Fleming & Ross Hutchins defeated Ivan Dodig & Sergiy Stakhovsky (CRO/UKR) by 1 & 2 smile

Their SF opponents will be either the Bryans or Leander Paes & Radek "Ugly Mug" Stepanek.

(1) Bob Bryan / Mike Bryan (USA)  beat  Colin Fleming / Ross Hutchins  (GBR)   6 - 4   6 - 2

After Fletch were a break up in the first set, the Bryans seem to have come back strongly to win that first set and then take the second set pretty comfortably.
