Tomic's Dutch hopes ended by Mahut
Australian second seed Bernard Tomic served up 14 aces but was still knocked out of the 's-Hertogenbosch grass court tournament by two-time champion Nicolas Mahut on Friday.
Mahut, the 2013 and 2015 champion at the Wimbledon warm-up event, won 6-7(5/7), 6-4, 6-2 to set up a semi-final clash against America's Sam Querrey.Victory for Mahut over Tomic was also revenge for a loss he suffered in their only other meeting in Brisbane in January. "It is difficult to play against Bernard on grass, so I am happy with the way I was able to come back after the first set," Mahut said.AFP
