Sakharov G. - Ramanathan R.

As the odds suggest this is as even semi final match as it gets although I do not see either of these players winning the final but this match could be interesting. They have never played before as far as I know but I am picking the higher ranked slight favorite to win the full event. Ramanathan looked impressive in outscoring Bradley Klahn with barely losing a serve and seems to be in a good form to advance to the finals. If he manages to maintain a clear concentration he should pull off the victory in a tight match .
