Philadelphia PA--
With only eight singles matches on the schedule, the opportunity for surprises was limited; Lindsay Burdette and Johnny Hamui, the top seeds, didn't give their opponents so much as a breath of hope Tuesday in the oppressive heat at the Philadelphia Cricket Club.
Burdette steamrolled Mia Fiocca 6-0, 6-0 and Hamui was nearly as dominant, mowing down Matthew Sands 6-1, 6-1. The other seeded player in the girls top half, Sanaz Marand, was unable to join Burdette in the quarterfinals however, as Caitlin Whoriskey defeated the fourth seed 6-3, 6-3. Denise Dy and Julia Boserup followed up on their first round upsets with wins on Tuesday--Dy defeating Logan Hansen 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 and Boserup downing Lindsay Clark 6-2, 6-2.
Rupesh Roy (5) and Shan Sondhu (7) had routine straight set wins over Brad Cox and Andy Magee to advance to the quarterfinals. Cory Parr's route was more challenging, as he overcame cramps and a one set deficit to defeat Philadelphian Maksim Tikhomirov 5-7, 6-2, 6-2. Serving at 3-2 30-all in the third set, Parr crumpled to the court, unable to move his left leg. A trainer provided oncourt assistance and after a brief interval, Parr resumed play, showing no further signs of distress, winning that game, and the next two, to take the match.
After that scare, Parr did not participate in doubles, although his usual partner Carlos Salmon did find a substitute in Wil Spencer and they advanced in two tiebreak sets. Tikhomirov teamed with Dan Buikema to upset the fourth seeded team of Corey Huggins and Dimitri Loucareas 6-4, 6-4. With the withdrawal of the top seeded doubles team of Peter Aarts and Jonathan Boym, only two seeded teams remain in the boys doubles. The four seeded girls doubles teams all advanced on Tuesday.
