Chiba is now 0-for-5 in getting past the round-robin stage of the World Tour Finals. Won a close 3-setter against Kaspar, then got beat down by Meikeljohn … and lost to Harald Balzer 7-6(4), 3-6, 6-4 to decide it. Meikeljohn wins all three, Kaspar advances among three 1-win guys for second place on the tiebreaker. So the one guy Chiba beat, goes through anyway. I've lost four of five to Balzer now after winning the first five matches against him, but three of the four losses were indoors. Overall played better than he did but a 19-7 disparity in aces did me in.

I just wanted one semi. Ah well. Congrats to those dorks from Ireland, who both advanced out of Group 1.
