Expected one sided loss @ 2 & 1 for Ram.
Moreover after playing all his life with a Babolat Raquet has now switched to a HEAD raquet, Raquet switchover is quite a sensitive thing , can't really say whether it will aid or hamper his game further.

Ramkumar won his doubles tie though. I think that is the main focus for him in a clay tournament!

^^^ Well, Tiburon CH has not been tracked this week on this site - Sid Banthia received a wildcard with an American player and possibly scored the best win of his doubles career upsetting Kudla and Ben Shelton. VSP/Anirudh on the other hand dispatched 3rd seeds Jaziri/Pervolarakis, and are facing each other, so we will have one more Indian representation in the SF :D

Haha, I had looked at the entry list or something for Tiburon earlier and assumed nobody would be there. But I was also wondering where VSP and Anirudh were. I guess they were right here in California (though 650 km away from me) :) ... Nice upsets there in doubles.

Update: And... Banthia and Overbeck upset Anirush and VSP, 63 75 to make semis!
