                    [Title] => Tierro advances against Victorino
                    [Summary] => SUBIC — Patrick John Tierro flashed his deadly form anew, this time eliminating No. 10 Pop Sabandon, 6-1, 6-4, to reach the semifinals of the Cebuana Lhuillier Tennis Circuit 2 yesterday  at the Subic Bay International Tennis Center indoor court here.


Fresh from a stunning upset over fourth seed and Philippine Davis Cupper Rolando Ruel Jr., the 16th-ranked Tierro dished out winners to  advance against second seed Joseph Victorino. 	


Victorino, another Davis Cupper who won the Philta Open last April, scored a 6-0, 6-3 over Dapitan City’s Rocky Paglalunan.

                    [Summary] => SUBIC —— Fourth seed Rolando Ruel Jr. barged into the finals of the second Coca-Cola National Open Tennis Championships,  ousting top seed and defending champion Joseph Victorino, 2-6, 7-6 (6), 6-4, yesterday at the Subic Bay International Tennis Center.


Victorino’s  right leg started to hurt at the start of the third set. The pain lessened and allowed him to recover from a 2-4 deficit but the cramps came back as he was trying to return Ruel’s volley.

But the 14-year-old tandem of Zoleta and de Castro bowed out in style, seizing the first set with a solid baseline game before getting swamped by the power duo of Kelly de Beer and Pasquale Jansma of the Netherlands in the last two sets, 3-6, 6-3, 6-1.
