Quite a turnaround from Oli, who plays last week's runner-up, an ex-top 100 player, next:

L16: (6) Oli Golding WR 355 beat Bar-Tzuf Botzer (ISR) WR 591 (CH 583 in Feb) by 4-6 6-3 6-0

QF: (6) Oli Golding WR 355 v (1) Jan Hernych (CZE) WR 237 (CH 59 in 2009)

Absolutely. When people question whether our 200+ players should be giving up 10ks and just playing 'bigger' things, it's worth remembering that players like Hernych obviously think that 10ks are a valid choice. (Not to say that makes it right, of course, but all the same . . . )

Good test for Oli. Looks like he may have to step it up as he certainly seems to have done in that third set today.

Yes, Botzer certainly had Oli on the ropes wink but thankfully he came out fighting so well done. Will definitely need to step it up tomorrow though.

Early days but Oli holding his own so far. 2-2. Had to save 2 BPs in the last game at 15-40 though.

Unfortunately Hernych breaks in the 10th game to take the set 6-4

But Oli has broken in the 1st game of the 2nd set. *1-0

Losing the 1st set has really motivated Oli to kick on and he breaks again to lead *3-0 in the 2nd set.

Hernych got one of the breaks back but Oli broke again to lead *5-2 in the 2nd only to get broken while serving for the set.

4-6 5-3*
