Gonzalez/Goransson Reach SFs In Estoril

Maximo Gonzalez and Andre Goransson overcame Pablo Cuevas and Joao Sousa 7-6(3), 7-5 on Thursday to reach the Millennium Estoril Open semi-finals.

The Argentine-Swedish tandem saved two set points on serve at 4-5 in the first set and broke three times to triumph after one hour and 39 minutes.

Gonzalez and Goransson are teaming for the first time this week and will next meet Ben McLachlan and Raven Klaasen after the fourth seeds edged past Jonathan Erlich and Lloyd Harris 4-6, 6-1, 10-4.

Klaasen earned his 300th tour-level doubles win on Tuesday and is aiming to win his third ATP Tour trophy with McLachlan.
