Greg and Rubin played to their singles rankings in the first set and broke the No.1 seeds twice in winning the 1st set 6-2, The doubles specialists responded and against tiring opposition, who had both played tough singles matches that day, won a close 2nd set 6-4, to take the match to the match tie-break "3rd set".
Unlike yesterday Greg and Rubin could not reverse the impetus the opposition had and fell behind in the tie-break, losing the tie-break 10-7 to bow out of the tournament with a 2-6, 6-4, (10-7) loss.
Greg will have a day off before heading for his next location, Sarasota, on the west coast of Florida, for another $50k Challenger tournament on clay.
