Early in the match Rohan-Edouard struggled to hold their service games against experienced pairing of Lindstedt-Nestor ... But they kept holding despite pressure ... Rohan-Edouard take crucial and only break in 12th game and won the first set ... In the second set Lindstedt-Nestor broke them in 1st game and take 2-0 lead but our pair fought back after breaking them in 6th game ... And then Rohan-Edouard dominated the tie-break with their huge serving ... In the third set Rohan-Edouard broke Lindstedt-Nestor in 1st game and take 2-0 lead but this time Lindstedt-Nestor broke back in 6th game to make it 3-all ... This set also went to tie-break, Lindstedt-Nestor take mini-break on 2nd point to lead 2-0 ... Lindstedt-Nestor broke them again on 11th point and won this set ... In the fourth set both pairs hold their respective service games and didn't face a break point ... In tie-break again Lindstedt-Nestor dominated and won it and made 2 sets to all ... But in the decider Rohan-Edouard had different plan ... They attacked opponents serve and in no time had double break lead ... When they were 5-2 up match was stopped due to rain but after restarting they completed victory after holding their service game ... So really big win for them in this long match we ended after three hours and fourty five minutes.
Leander-Radek lost the first set with a single break ... Zimo-Julien converted single break point chance and our pair failed to convert two in the first set ... From the second set Lee-Radek raised their game ... Through out thr match Radek was looking in sublime form near the net ... In the second set our pair broke Zimo=Julien twice and lost their serve once ... In the third set Lee-Radek didn't face a single break point and converted one break point from two chances ... After third set match was stopped due to rain ... After returning Lee-Radek broke Julien's serve in 1st game ... After that Zim--Julien tried to put pressure on Lee's serve and they managed to broke him in 8th game to make it 4-all ... But Lee-Radek played excellent returning on serve on Julien's next service game ... They broke Julien in 9th game and then Radek hold comfortably for completing victory in two hours and thirty nine minutes.
Mahesh-Julien lost in close match against Bryans ... All set went to tie-breaks which Bryans dominated ... Only one each service break came in the third set ... Unlucky loss for Mahesh in his last Wimbledon match ... In the semis Bryans r facing Rohan-Edouard.
In mixed doubles Sania-Horia broke Julia in 4th game and take early lead ... This one break lead was enough for them for winning the first set ... Same story repeated in the second set as Sania-Horia again take a break and kept that for winning the match ... Next they r facing Butorac-Cornet, who scored upset win over Lee-Zheng.
Other hand Leander failed to keep his same winning momentum in mixed doubles ... Lee lost in straight sets against Butorac-Cornet pair with his new Chinese partner Saisai Zheng ... May be blessing in disguise as now he can concentrate on his men's doubles semi-final with Radek.
