Eastbourne - Feliciano Lopez has won a battle between two Spanish lefthanders to reach the Eastbourne semi-finals, beating Fernando Verdasco 6-4, 7-6 (6) on Thursday.
The match was delayed for 90 minutes by light rain and began with mist enveloping the court. Just one break of serve at 2-2 decided the opening set, and Verdasco then complained about the conditions before play continued.
Lopez saved a break point to hold for 2-2 and then a second set point at 5-4 before rallying from 4-1 down in the tiebreaker.
