QF: (WC) David Rice & Sean Thornley vs (2) Scott Lipsky & Rajeev Ram (USA/USA)
No danger of divided loyalties there!
QF: Marinko Matosevic & Bobby Reynolds (AUS/USA) vs Jonny Marray & Freddie Nielsen (DEN)
Matosevic & Reynolds took out the third seeds, Cerretani & Shamasdin earlier, so will be no pushovers.

Oli & the Baker Boy seem to be giving Colin & Ross a decent workout on their return to the tour, but the latter nevertheless take the first set by 6-4.
Colin & Ross break for a *4-2 lead in the second set.
Dom & TCH lead Ball & van der Merwe by *4-3 in the first set.
