Dang - couldn't follow the detail of the last set, sadly, but feels like an opportunity gone begging.

It's a pity that he lost such a long competitive match. But, having won that 2nd set TB and apparently having no BPs in the third set ( with Berrettini taking 1 of his 2 ) I'm not sure that I'd describe it as an opportunity gone begging.

Overall, looks a couple of decent matches this week with one good looking win.

 I was thinking after the first set, he had a point to go 5-1 up in that set, shouldnt really have lost it from there. I think that was the big missed opportunity for him!

 Good stuff, back on the bike. Doumbia and Reboul had a lot riding on that match and Lloyd and Julian bolster their top spot in the Race. 

4 of the top 5 race teams left in the last 8 here, strong field!

 Got to hope all 3 pairs with Brits in can get through the last 8 matches tomorrow. Pavic and Arevalo are, of course, in the other one at the top of the draw.

Arevalo and Pavic were 6-5 down in the final set and retired. Not sure what went on there?

Joe and Neal currently a set down, 3-6

If Julian and Lloyd win later, Julian will return to WR 2.

Harri and Henry v Julian and Lloyd. H and H are playing v well so far, interesting to see where this lands.

Harri & Henry winning that match, going on to win the title, then win the Paris Masters, then win the Tour Finals undefeated would make life rather interesting by close of play in the race this season

Doing some quick calculations, if Lloyd & Julian were RU in both Paris and Turin they'd remain ahead but not with that much to spare.

Well, Julian and Lloyd got it done, 10-5 in the MTB, and hold on well to their security on top spot.

These two pairs are v close, but J and L seem to just have the edge. Paris and Turin will be fascinating, with Arevalo/Pavic, Granollers/Zeballos and Joe and Neal thrown in, plus the other 3 pairs qualifying over the next two weeks.
