For the record:

L16:  (6) Quentin Halys (FRA) WR 139 defeated Ed Corrie WR 357 by 7-5 7-6(4)  cry

That looks pretty close!  hmm

I've always been an amazing lucky mascot for Ed Corrie. I've never seen him lose either live or online- must be at least 8 matches. Was in and out of meetings today, but managed to turn it on at 5-2 down in the second. Then, albeit watching slightly fleetingly in between other things, suddenly he holds, breaks, holds and he's into a tie break. then at 4-3 in the tie break the live stream goes off- Its a scam, I tell you.

Got it back on in time to see to see them shaking hands, but I'm not counting that as a defeat, as far as I'm concerned the unbroken Corrie/ Topemp record still intact, only dodgy French/ ATP internet provision denied us.

QF:  (2) Ken Skupski & Neal Skupski CR 150 (72+78) defeated Ante Pavic & Aldin Sektic (CRO/BIH) CR 1010 (542+468) by 6-3 7-6(1)

****

SF:  Ivan Sabanov & Matej Sabanov (CRO/CRO) CR 494 (247+247) vs (2) Ken Skupski & Neal Skupski CR 150 (72+78)

The Croatian twins progressed to the semis courtesy of a first round win over the third seeds, Kravchuk & Sitak, & a walkover against our old friend, Marius Copil, & Sergiy Stakhovsky.

Great to see Ken and Neal back together and winning again. They are defending champions here so are protecting an 80 point scorer on their rankings..

So, Ken & Neal. You'd better just go on and win it again then, hadn't you.

Re Ed, it looks as though he's staying in France next week, but moving north from Provence to Alsace:  I see he's on the acceptance list for the $25,000 Futures event in Mulhouse, where he should be seeded, conceivably as high as third.

And we have our dream final - but:  divided loyalties time (though not for Bob, I suppose, or even Phil for that matter)!  hmm

Final:  David O'Hare (IRL) & Joe Salisbury CR 416 (143+273) vs (2) Ken Skupski & Neal Skupski CR 150 (72+78)

Who'd've predicted that at the start of this week? wink  What a reunion! smile

Lovely. As Skupskis are defending points, I'll be favouring them for the final - but delighted for both.
