Top-seeded Taylor Fritz overcame a 5-2 deficit in the third-set tiebreaker, winning the final five points to rally past fellow U.S. player Sebastian Korda 6-7 (2), 6-4, 7-6 (5) in the quarterfinals of the Nexo Dallas Open on Friday.
The match featured just one service break, which Fritz earned in the final game of the second set. Each player had one break point in the middle of the final set but couldn't take advantage.
Fritz's opponent in the semifinals will be Croatia's Marin Cilic, who downed British qualifier Jack Pinnington Jones 6-1, 6-4.
The other semifinal will feature the winners of two Friday night matches: second-seeded Ben Shelton of the U.S. vs. Serbia's Miomir Kecmanovic, and seventh-seeded Denis Shapovalov of Canada, the defending champion, against third-seeded Alejandro Davidovich Fokina of Spain.
ABN Amro Open
The last two Dutch players in the draw fell in the quarterfinals at Rotterdam, Netherlands, extending a streak in which a home-grown player last won the championship in 1998, when Jan Siemerink prevailed.
Top-seeded Alex de Minaur of Australia overtook the Netherlands' Botic van de Zandschulp 3-6, 7-6 (4), 7-5. van de Zandschulp committed 60 unforced errors to de Minaur's 33, more than offsetting the Dutch player's 33-15 edge in winners.
Second-seeded Felix Auger-Aliassime of Canada, the 2022 Rotterdam champion, downed seventh-seeded Tallon Griekspoor of the Netherlands 7-6 (2), 6-2.
Third-seeded Alexander Bublik of Kazakhstan edged Spain's Jaume Munar 6-4, 6-7 (4), 7-6 (3), and France's Ugo Humbert toppled Australian qualifier Christopher O'Connell 6-4, 6-1.
IEB+ Argentina Open
Second-seeded Luciano Darderi of Italy bested Spain's Pedro Martinez 7-5, 6-1 to join three Argentines in the semifinals at Buenos Aires.
Darderi piled up nine aces, saved all four break points he faced and compiled a 37-6 edge in winners.
Top-seeded Argentine Francisco Cerundolo, a finalist in the event last year, eliminated the Czech Republic's Vit Kopriva 6-4, 6-3. In an all-Argentina matchup, fourth-seeded Sebastian Baez beat sixth-seeded Camilo Ugo Carabelli 7-6 (5), 6-2. Seventh-seeded Tomas Martin Etcheverry of Argentina got past Chile's Alejandro Tabilo 1-6, 6-3, 6-4.
