Matt's opponent, Lizariturry, is the guy who beat Alex last week.

But that was on clay and he seems to have played on nothing but clay all year, So hopefully he'll find the 'hard' a bit more 'hard'....

Oh, nice one, Matt.

Thought Juan L might have trouble on a hard court ....

Matt's on a good little run recently.

Still feel he's one for your list, Bob

Excellent win for Matt today to set up an all-GB QF - H2H is 1-0 to Alex, who won in two tiebreak sets in Vale do Lobo earlier this year.
