 A great day in Japan for the British players today!

Mens singles - highlight is Gordon Reid beating 4th seed Gustavo Fernandez 3-6 6-4 6-2. Great win for Gordon

Alfie also won his last 8 match over Egberink in straight sets  

Alfie and Gordon now play each other in the semis! The other semi is Tokito Oda versus Ji of China

Mens doubles - Alfie and Gordon won their semi over Ben and Rodrigues, play de la Puente and Egberink in the final. That was a small seeding upset and Alfie and Gordon could have a chance of moving back to join number 1 spot if they can win the final

Quad doubles - Greg and Leandro Pena of Brazil won their semi in a MTB, over the top seeds, and move into the final to play 3rd seeded Sam Schroder and Jin Woodman.

So, finalists in both mens and quad doubles events and an all British mens singles semi. Good stuff.
