After several days of intense competition, the Brisbane QTC Tennis International has showcased a mix of rising stars and seasoned professionals, with Fourth Seed Alex Bolt securing a hard-fought quarterfinal spot today after a three-hour battle against Govind Nanda. The contest saw Bolt pushed to the limit, fighting his way back from being down in the first set to taking the final two tiebreak sets. Bolt ultimately prevailed winning 4-6, 7-6(8), 7-6(4). This will see Bolt take on fellow Aussie and Fifth-Seed Tristian Schoolkate tomorrow for a spot in the Semi-Final.

In another standout performance, sixth-seed Omar Jasika edged past Christian Langmo in a thrilling match yesterday. With both players exchanging powerful groundstrokes and shot-making under pressure, Jasika secured the win in straight sets 7-5, 7-5, and with that, a spot in the quarterfinal.

Queensland’s own Adam Walton and Blake Ellis, put on a commanding performance in the Men’s Doubles quarterfinal today battling past Kody Pearson and Joshua Sheehy to a 7-6(6), 6-2 victory. This secures their spot in the Semi-Finals tomorrow and will see both players compete in the Men’s Singles quarterfinal as well.

On the Women’s side, Top-Seed Maddison Inglis showed resilience, overcoming Queensland favourite Lizette Cabrera in a gripping three-hour match that ended 4-6, 7-6(6), 6-3. After dropping the opening set, Inglis rallied to turn the match around, securing her place in the quarterfinals.

World No.1 Junior Emerson Jones delivered a dominant performance against Hanyu Guo controlling the match from the outset winning 6-4, 6-3, and securing her spot in the quarterfinal to take on Maddison Inglis.
