At $70K Nottingham-1 Challenger, England (Grass)

[R1] (3) Divij Sharan (IND)/ Nicholas Monroe (USA) l Ryan Harrison (USA)/ Kevin King (USA) 67(7) 76(3) 3-10

This match was tricky one against American but still I was hoping for win ... But I think Americans big serving help them for winning this match ... Americans won the first set in extra points before Divij-Monroe won it second set in tie-break ... In match tie-break American pair proved too strong for Monroe-Divij.
