Tournament number one seed in the men’s category, Spain’s Enrique Lopez-Perez, is justifying his rating in this year’s Governor’s Cup Lagos Tennis Championship as he is cruising his way to winning the second leg (Futures 6) of the competition.

On Thursday, Lopez-Perez, who won Futures 5 last weekend, had a smooth ride to the semi final as he defeated number 8 seed, Maciej Smola of Poland in straight set of 7-6,7-5 to set up a clash against Moez Echargui of Tunisia on Friday.

Moez defeated Sasi Kumar Mukund of India in 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 match.

Injured Egyptian Karim-Mohamed Maamoun could not complete his game against Gianni Mina of France as he retired in the second leg of the match that was stopped at 6-1,2-0.

The French will battle compatriot Calvin Hemery in the semi final. Hemery beat Boy Westerhof from The Netherlands 6-2,7-6,6-1.

In the Women’s Singles, number 7 seed, Julia Terziyska from Bulgaria upset number 4 seed,Valeriya Strakhova of Ukraine in straight set of 6-0,6-4 to set up a semi final tie against first leg winner, Tadeja Majeric from Slovakia who beat Omar’s Fatma Al-Nabhani in the quarter finals.

Conny Perrin of Switzerland beat Tessah Andrianjaftrimo of France 6-4,1-6,6-4.

Perrin, runner up in Futures 5 last week, will face number one seed, Valetini Grammatikopoulou from Greece who defeated Deniz Khazaniuk of Israel 7-6,4-6,6-1.

Meanwhile, Governor of Lagos State, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode will be special guest of honour during the closing ceremony of the 16th edition of the Governor’s Cup Lagos Tennis Championship on Saturday.
