Holger Rune seems to be gradually returning to quality tennis in Tokyo.

After a very difficult first round against a rather impressive Alejandro Tabilo (6-2, 5-7, 6-4), he clearly stepped up a notch on Saturday.

Against Yoshito Nishioka, the Dane played a very solid game, from first to last point (27 winners, 10 unforced errors).

Winning in just over an hour (6-2, 6-4), Rune enjoyed himself and will now challenge Nishikori for a place in the semi-finals.

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.?
