Melzer might be a bit tired this week after his final appearance at Memphis.
Certainly think the boys have shown good sense playing in the USA. Drop a few hints to Andy for next year Ross!

[Sallydaisy]

Good start for the lads; 3-1 up and they're serving but a DF from Hutch gives the oppo a chance for a break back.

But ... errors and the oppo broke them and then held for 3-3.
Love hold from Colin for 4-3 and the others held too for 4-4.
Ross serving again at *4-4.

[Linda]

they take the first set 6-4 :cheer:

[Sallydaisy]

Phew, they really got out of jail there!

[Linda]

Whoops, they both went for the ball at the same time there!

. . . Now they seem to be having an argument with the umpire :sad:

2nd set not going well so far :sad: 1-3

Another df. 1-4

Recovered to 4-4. Come on guys! :swingin:

5-5

Did he say try a whipped cream vodka? Mixed with orange juice? :hide: Surely I misheard?

They win 6-4, 7-5 :cheer: :cheer: :yahoo:

[Sallydaisy]

[patmoren]

Well done Colin and Ross getting really good results.

[supergran]

Congratulations Colin and Ross.:cheer::cheer:

[lankster2003]

Great win for Colin and Ross. Fantastic comeback in the 2nd set. Were in every service game of Sweeting and Tomic throughout and made this count at the end.

Maybe wee cheeky DC warm up match vs Darcis/Rochus if they win today!

[patmoren]

Colin/Ross take the first set 6-1 and leading in the second 5-1. Making a DC point against Rochus and Darcis!!

[patmoren]

Colin and Ross into the semi at Delray Beach 6-1, 6-2 against the Belgium pair

[supergran]

:cheer::cheer:

[lankster2003]

The Bryans got beat last night so Colin and Ross are now the top remaining seeds in the draw. Semi Final is on Saturday.

Yes the draw has opened up, hopefully Colin/Ross can live up to the billing!

Well done Colin and Ross, hope they can take the title. On a great run at the moment.

Vamos Colin & Ross! :swingin:

[Tie-break]

Yes, let's go Colin and Ross! Didn't stay up for the semi-final as it was in the middle of the night here. But really hope they win later today and consolidate all the good results they have had this year. Aren't they doing well!!

[Sallydaisy]

6pm UK time they'll be on; hope there is a live stream for it.

[Linda]

It's on tennistv :)

[Linda]

I see that Colin & Ross are 9th in the Race and only 5 points below the team in 8th place :)

[RoastLamb]

I'm watching. What a treat to see dubs!!!

[Linda]

Great start!

Oops.

[RoastLamb]

Terrible second service game. :eek:

[Linda]

Broken again :crying: on Colin's serve both times.

And that's the first set gone 2-6 :crying:

[Tie-break]

Can't believe this. On tennis tv commentary there has just been an 'in-match' interview with the winners of the 1st set. Never heard that before.

[Linda]

Broken again :crying: Every one of Colin's service games lost so far :sad:

But they broke straight back :)

[JAMES4578]

Unfortunately Colin broken again when they had the momentum at 4-2, hopefully Cross can still take the 2nd!

[Linda]

Colin finally holds! 6-5

[Alis]

[Tie-break]

Brilliant! So pleased for the two of them. They must have nerves of steel!
