Del Potro breezes to the semifinals in Dubai

Easy stuff for Delpo against the world no.97. Daniel Brands had a remarkable tournament to get to the quarter finals straight from the qualifications. The German defeated in the previous round seed no.8 Michael Youzhny 6-4 6-4, but there was not much hope against the Argentine.

It took only 62 minutes for Delpo to win this match blasting 8 aces on 9 service games. The Argentine didn’t concede a break point to break Brands 3 times each of the the first time asking.

“I played really well in the second set and I took my chance to break his serve at the end of the first set,” said Juan Martin. “He made a few mistakes with his forehand and it was a really fast game when he was serving. I tried to be focused on my service game.”
