Rome Masters
Spain's David Ferrer rallied to defeat Alberto Martin 6-2, 3-6, 7-5 and progress to the semi-finals.
Ferrer rallied to save three match points and break Martin as his compatriot served at 5-3 up in the deciding set. He saved another match point on his own serve in the next game and then broke Martin to take a 6-5 lead before wrapping up the match.
Ferrer's previous best result in the Italian capital was a first-round win over Andre Agassi in 2003 but this year he had already disposed of French Open champion Gaston Gaudio in the last 16.
