He's into the semis !!!!

6-2, 7-6[2]. What a win !!! I'd say that's his best of the year, I'd even place the Wimby r1 win behind this one

So next up in tomorrow's semis is France's Jo Wilfred-Tsonga, I think Richard deserves a separate thread for this match !

Hopefully there hasn't been a fortune placed on him at the bookies this time

Strewth, you mean the match is finished and he has won?

I went straight to the Challenger website and that said the match before him was still in progress! I should have known better - this site has all the news!

Excellent result, just that one slip up when serving for it but Richard did really well not to let it get to him and to take it on the tiebreak.

Yeah, I think he's only lost 2 pts on serve so far, it's unbelievable stuff, he must be powering down ace after ace. The pressure must be building on Patience as Bloomers is also very consistent from the baseline, you really have to hit him off the court to win pts.

And just as I type this Bloomers has got to 30-30

30-40

Game

6-2, 4-2

Superb stuff, just two service holds from the semis




Stats show 13 aces for Richard and 0 for patience (Not as good as the 25 against Lacko but that was an extra set)

Good result for Bloomers, hopefully he'll give a game of it against Tsonga who he has a losing record against. C'mon
