18h54QUARTER 3: GASQUET LEADS 6-4
Lopez has to have this quarter but he just can't find the solutions against Gasquet. The Frenchman saunters off to a 6-4 lead and he'll serve next. -
18h47QUARTER 2: Gasquet takes it 18-14
The Frenchman's mastery over his good friend El Torero continues. At one point it was tied at 11-11 but Gasquet had cards in his pocket and took charge to win 7 of the final 10 points. -
18h43QUARTER 2: Gasquet leads 17-11

A valiant performance by Dustin Brown, who turned in 32 winners against 12 unforced errors. -

The Artist stops @FerVerdasco's semifinal hopes.

More domination from Brown who is in firm control of this contest thanks to assertive play and fantastic serving. -

It's all Brown as we pass the half-way mark in quarter two. He's swinging freely, no pressure. -
17h13QUARTER 1: Brown leads 14-12
Make it 7 points on the trot for Brown after he crushes a backhand winner.
Now make it 8 -
17h13QUARTER 1: Brown wins it 19-17
A brilliant comeback from Dustin Brown from 12-6 down. And the German's mini-triumph is big for Corentin Moutet. The Frenchman has qualified for tomorrow's semi-finals as a result of Brown's win in the quarter. -
17h05QUARTER 1: Verdasco leads 12-10
The Spaniard stretches his lead by using the Next Point X2 card for four. Good start for El Fuego, who really has been quite solid at UTS.

16h47MOUTET WINS BY DEFAULT
Updating the status of Benoit Paire, who appeared to be suffering from heat exhaustion. He looks to be feeling okay and was recently being monitored by health professionals.
Here was the abrupt ending to the match:
Scenes.
— UTS | Ultimate Tennis Showdown (@UTShowdown) August 1, 2020
Benoit Paire walks off the court mid-match due to injury, handing @moutet99 a walkover - and the 4-0 win he was chasing.
Coincidentally, Dustin Brown is out of the race to the Final Four. 😕#UTShowdown pic.twitter.com/ykKMYbJ8OH
In the meantime, Moutet chance's are good, and the Frenchman will have to cheer for Dustin Brown to score a quarter off of Fernando Verdasco to qualify for the semis... -
16h31QUARTER 3: Moutet Leads 16-8
It's all Moutet now as he's just converted both of his Next Point X2 cards. And just like that Benoit Paire has retired. He walks off the court and forfeits the quarter. So the match is over and Paire has defaulted. -
16h26QUARTER 3: Moutet leads 9-5
Moutet scores three off a net cord serve winner. The no-let rule pays dividends for Moutet. More hard luck for Paire. -
16h19QUARTER 2: Moutet wins it 18-11
Moutet took over the quarter late and Paire didn't have the time - or energy - to get back into it. -
16h16QUARTER 2: Moutet leads 15-10
Moutet takes his next point x2 card and reels off four points to lead by 3. Now it's Paire struggling and Moutet takes two more points on Paire's serve as the clock ticks under a minute. -
16h15VIDEO: MAX EFFORT MOUTET
How about this for all-out defense?
Sliding on hard? No problem.

15h19QUARTER 3: Dimitrov wins quarter 3, 15-14!
It comes down to a deciding point as Dimitrov ties it at 14 at the buzzer.
And...
Dimitrov wins it as the buzzer as a Mahut backhand sails long. -
15h12QUARTER 3: Mahut leads 9-7
A flashy backhand volley - ah, the Frenchman's net game! - for 8-7 and Mahut leads by a sliver after taking the next point. It's looking like quite a UTS debut for Mahut. -
15h05QUARTER 2: Mahut takes the quarter 15-13
It was 13-all with :22 on the clock and Dimitrov played his -1 serve card forcing Mahut to hit two second serves...
Mahut wins them both! The first with a brilliant first serve, the second thanks to a regrettable Dimitrov error... -
15h01QUARTER 2: Mahut leads 13-11
Mahut goes from 9-11 down to 13-11 up with the help of his Next point x2 card. Under a minute to go now. -

Dimitrov makes good on his next point x 2 card and we're level. Mahut goes for a coaching timeout with 3:48 remaining. -
14h54QUARTER 2: Mahut leads 7-4
The Frenchman steals serve (though Dimitrov was unhappy because he felt he asked for his card first. No worries, Mahut offers to allow Dimitrov to serve, and the Bulgarian defers) and takes one of two points to lead by three. -
14h50QUARTER 2: Mahut leads 5-1
The Musketeer is settling into the format and the court and he's taken an early 5-1 lead. No cards in play just yet in quarter two. -
14h46QUARTER 1: Dimitrov wins the first quarter, 14-11
A run at the end by Nicolas Mahut gets him closer, but Dimitrov takes the quarter by three.
-
14h43QUARTER 1: Dimitrov leads 14-10
The Frenchman takes a crack at his winners x 3 card and scores four points to close the gap to four. But only 30 seconds left now. -
14h41Quarter 1: Dimitrov leads 10-6
And Mahut comes back after a timeout to use his next point x 2 card. The Frenchman seems to be enjoying himself except for the heat. But it is the Bulgarian who claims two points in succession to take control of the set. -
13h59QUARTER 1: Moutet leads 15-13
Moutet tied it at 13-13 with 1:30 left and he had one use of his next point x 2 card...
