Miami Masters

This time Toni Bardales lasted until the third round, where he was ousted by (20) Patrik Rask of Sweden. In the next round another early exit for (3) Renke Cananis, an understandable one courtesy of crowd favorite Fraikes. Polychroniadis withstood another close call to get past Davide de Laurentiis, 6-4, 6-7(6), 6-1.

For the second Masters in a row, Daniel Long was in the right place of the draw at the right time. Caballero booted him in the quarterfinals, 6-4, 6-2, ensuring his stay would be short. Oleg Urazov was similarly dismissed by Faille, Joss Fraikes went out to Przalowik, and the match of the round by far saw Jochen Weigle be the latest not-quite-good-enough effort against Polychroniadis, 6-7(6), 6-3, 7-5.

So three of the top four then into the semis. This time Leon Polychroniadis could not hold off the tide of lower-ranked players, with Johann Przalowik just getting by him 6-7(5), 6-4, 7-6(6). This one truly could have gone either way. Ene Caballero was eliminated by Ben Faille 6-4, 6-1, and he went on to face his toughest challenge of the tournament by beating Przalowik in the final, 6-4, 6-4. No sets lost this week for the #1, and much of what happened to other players was defined by what point they met him in the draw.
