Disappointing loss for Ramk after winning the first set ... After dominating the first set he lost next two sets in the tie-breaks, must miss few match points also.
What's more disappointing is he lost after being a break up in both the second and the third sets. He was 4-1 up in the third when I stopped following.
Safwat was ranked one spot above Prajnesh and made it as LL at the French Open. But Prajnesh has dominated him all year, more so over time. Good to see!!

Looks like nerves against a younger, less fancied player who Ramkumar seemingly dominated in the first half of the match.
RamK served for the match at 5-4 in the second set and 5-3 in the third set and got broken both the times. He also had couple of matchpoint in the second set tie break- one on his own serve which he could not convert.
Terrible loss for RamK. A match which should have won in straight sets.
Due to rain the matches have been shifted indoors.
In Sumit's match against Fabbiano, Sumit got broken in very first game but broke right back and them broke Fabbiano again in 10th game to take the first set 6-4.
Now let's see how Sumit takes it forward now. In his recent matches, Sumit has made a good start but then has faltered.
Fabbiano takes the second set 6-4. Again 2 breaks to 1 but this time Fabbiano gets 2 breaks against 1 by Sumit. This is a close match so far though in the first 2 sets.
