Lee and Lukas scored striaght sets victory against local pair to move into quarter-final ... They needed tie-break to won first but in second set they were in control ... In quarter-final they having very tough challenge of 5th seed good clay court pair of Brazilian Soares and Zimbabwian Ullyett.

Mahesh and Mark needed to dig deep to scored tight 3 sets victory over Johan Brunstrom and Jean-Julien Rojer ... Match was too closer than they expected where last 2 sets went to tie-break ... Lucky escape for them.
