As I hoped this match turn into very interesting one ... Buji pulled a win despite Ze was more dominating in this match ... In the first set Buji was up with break at 4-3 and then at 6-5 but both times he failed to hold his serve ... Ze won the first set in tie-break ... In the second set Buji broke Ze in 2nd game to lead 3-0 and then 4-1 ... From here Ze tried fightback ... He broke Buji in 7th game to bring set on the serve, 4-all ... In tie-break Ze take mini-break on 1st point and kept that lead till 5-4 ... While serving for the match from 5-4 Ze lost next 2 points on his serve ... Buji failed to convert first set point at 6-5 on his serve but on 7-6 he take mini-break for converting the second set point ... In the final set Buji was early break down but he fought back and brought set on the serve at 3-all ... After that both players held their respective service games before Buji take crucial break in 11th game ... This time Buji hold his serve for excellent win for this three hours match ... Next Buji is facing top-seed and top-50 type Kazakh player Mikhail Kukushkin.
Divij's inconsistent performance continue and he lose his match with Kevin against wild-card pair in straight sets.
