Well done Henry - Second final now in as many weeks. Good going.....

  I heard "Allez"' being shouted occasionally,   when I was away from the screen, - thought it might be Evo's influence on Henry  but then twigged it was more likely Bertrand, being as he is  French........

Julia and I were in the wrong thread

Henry lost first set and now into Tie break in second - I would say he looks a bit weary today......... yesterday he looked like he could have gone on and on

Me:

He had quite a few break points in that second set, in the middle

And, to me, he didn't look weary then, as such, but when he lost them, he looked a little weary afterwards, as though that was his chance, to get a third set, he should have put himself in the positiong where he could, and he didn't - and he knew he should have

Net, net, he lost 6-4 7-6(2)

But Geerts was strong, it was a decent match, from what I saw

A really good second set from Henry with plenty of good play but he didn't get the breakthrough. He did an UE on the first point of the TB and never recovered and let his head drop at *2-5.
