Only three seeds left now:  "Bas" (3), Shabaz (4) & Ivo Klec (7), with "Bas" the one remaining in the bottom half...

 Bas has dropped the first set 6-1, the other two are playing each other.

Great chance for Luke to play the weekend.

SF:  (Q) Niels Lootsma (NED) WR 1603 vs Luke Bambridge WR 758

The Dutch boy struggled to serve out the match against the third seed, but served 15 aces to Bas's one in his eventual win!

This will be the 3rd qualifier in a row Luke has played. A win would take him into the top 700.

Yet more very positive signs from Luke. Well played.

 Well, at least that meant you half-expected that they'd win too smilesmilesmile

 

Shame that both pairs lost in a MTB but two semi-finalists is pretty good.

 

And well done again to Luke - suddenly seems to have broken out of the trading range that he'd been stuck in for so long, brilliant.

Nice run going for Luke, a good chance of getting to the final and a great end to the year

There have started in Qatar, Luke holds serve.

Has Luke made a ITF tour final yet?

Yes, Heraklion last month when he beat Liam in the semis and lost to Oli in the final.
