Coleman Wong of Hong Kong stretched his dream run as he beat Yuta Shimizu of Japan 7-6(5), 6-4 in the semifinals of the Dafa News $82,000 Delhi Open Challenger tennis tournament at the DLTA Complex on Saturday.
The 19-year-old Wong, ranked 241 in the world, was more athletic and energetic in taming the Japanese who had put out the top seed Benjamin Bonzi in the second round.
It was more about capitalising on the chances and handling the windy conditions well, as Wong converted one of nine break points, while he did not let Shimizu convert any of the ten break points that he faced.
