Couldn't help noticing that Q Lootsma beat marzi 6-7(4) 6-4 6-4.
Then won his next round 6-7(5) 7-6(9) 6-4.
And then won his next round 2-6 7-6(5) 7-6(3)

That's a lot of very tight matches, a lot of tennis. Well done, that man . . .

Lootsma served 23 aces against Marzi and they seemed to come disproportionately on big points. Specifically he saved 3 of the 4 break points that he faced with aces.
