Week 39 - Sweden F5 ($15,000) - Falun (Hard - indoors)

paulisi · Tennis legend

Milts lost in straight sets 6-3 7-6. A bit of a surprise....

Not the greatest of weeks in Sweden.

Ed still to play and should be on shortly.

Having never had trouble against Figueroa before (and now seemingly playing as well as he ever has), that's quite a shock

L32: (8) Josh Milton WR 376 lost to (Q) Pablo Figueroa (SWE) UNR (CH 604 in 2010) by 6-3 7-6(2)

L16: Lewis Burton WR 726 v (Q) Pablo Figueroa (SWE) UNR (CH 604 in 2010)

H2H 1-0 - Lewis won a very close match 5-7 6-1 7-6(9) in Uppsala in 2011

Ed lost the 1st set to Sekulic but has just won the 2nd set tiebreak and is serving first in the decider - 4-6 7-6(3)

steven · Tennis legend

After living rather dangerously, Ed now has 2 match points on Sekulic's serve.

Both saved

steven · Tennis legend

Tiebreak. There has only been one break in the whole match so far (Sekulic in the final game of the 1st set) so if Ed does manage to scrape through here, he'll have done it without breaking serve once. But will he ...

steven · Tennis legend

Livescores have 29 aces for Ed so far, 6 for Sekulic.

Phew!

L16: (1) Ed Corrie WR 269 beat Milos Sekulic (SWE) WR 697 (CH 643 last month) by 4-6 7-6(3) 7-6(7)

Well done Ed! Keep on truckin'

Lewis was serving for the first set at 5-3, but was broken and is now 5-5.

I was about to say that the fight to stay/break into Steven's top 25 table is getting interesting with Toby, JWH, Jack all winning and Farris will be expected to win tonight. If Lewis can sneak through it would make it even more interesting.

Burts takes the tie break 9-7

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Interesting match to watch - there's a lot of variety, and mixing it up. Figueroa is a tricky customer . . . but Lewis is playing pretty well. The Swede is 3-0 up in the second set though. . .
