The semifinal on Saturday should be on live stream:

I don't have a good quality of the stream at home, so I hope at least someone here can watch it.

Kas/Petzschner vs Damm/Stepanek

[Tuga]

The semi game is in 3rd set....3/6 for stepanek/damm 7/6 for phil/kas...

cmon guys win this...

[Tuga]

Sorry for my english and my bad results but i dont understand that live scoreboard! the game was not transmitted in live stream!

IT SAYS ON SCOREBOARD: KAS/PETZSCHNER DEF. STEP/DAMM 3/6 7/6 (6)


THE IMPORTANT IS THAT KAS/PETZSCHNER WON THE SEMI!!

YUPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!

[JMG]

They lost 6-10. It's in the official draw http://www.atptennis.com/en/common/T...06/496/mdd.pdf

Strange thing, after the second set I didn't watch the scoreboard anymore, so at least I was not fooled by the scoreboard. Yesterday they had Youzhny "6-4 1-5" on it although he lost 3-6 1-6 !!!

The match was moved from center court to court 1, that's why it wasn't on the stream.

I saw the game...They continue their carrer in doubles...

6/4 6/3 to petzschner/kas...

[JMG]

I saw it too. But they should have won with a better result, maybe 6-2 6-2.

QF Kas/Petzschner d. Ratiwatana/Udomchoke 6-4 6-2

Semifinal is probably against the world class team Llodra/Mahut!

I wonder if he will play next week as there is no European challenger. He has almost nothing to defend for the next 2 1/2 months, so it's a good chance to get direct entry in doubles (French Open and Wimbledon) for example.
