The pattern was simple enough for Germany. With Daniel Altmaier beating Gabriel Diallo (7-6, 6-4), a win for Jan-Lennard Struff in the second singles was enough to send them through to the final. However, against a good Denis Shapovalov, Struff seemed headed for defeat for a long time.

Ill-treated by an aggressive and highly effective Canadian, the German even found himself down by a set before completely turning the match around and finally breaking Shapovalov in the tie-break of the last set (4-6, 7-5, 7-6).

Having qualified for the semi-finals, the Germans will meet the Netherlands in the next round of the competition.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
