Three MPs on Lee's serve - but to no avail.

Now serving for it at 5-3

James gets the W after a somewhat topsy turvy final set.  Good points and money for him, with the prospect of even more to come!

Yay James breaks again to win on his 4th MP of the game. The first was saved with a ridiculously good drop shot from well back, the last err wasn't when Lee tried to repeat the feat and James got up to it and gobbled it up.

Frustratingly, work got in the way, and I missed the end of the 3rd set. Anyway well done to James, good to see him get the win.

40 points up on the week (so far) and up to 266 in the live ranking. A good week for James.

Playing a lad that's ranked in the 700s in the semis... you don't get many better chances than that to reach a challenger final.

SF:  James Ward WR 305 vs (WC) Xia Zihao (CHN) WR 724 (CH = 714 in June last year)

On the face of it, Dino has a good chance of reaching the final.    The Chinese WC won his QF when his opponent retired at 5-4 to Xia.

I'm really happy for James, he's had a rough time of late. This W takes him to WR 266, and another would take him to around 250 The rest of his potential opponents aren't ranked higher than 300.

Great couple of weeks for James. Hopefully he fully takes advantage of the SF draw.

the semi finalists are James, a qualifier, and 2 WCs. Can't ask for much better!

Ward is playing really well in these futures, maybe he is ready to step back up to Challengers soon!
