6:45 p.m. CT: Improbable comeback helps Johnson, Frazier survivie upset bid from Diamond, Freeman
Most teams will lose a game when they're down 0-6. But JW Johnson and Dylan Frazier—the No. 2 seeds in this week's men's doubles draw—are not most teams.
They did get down 0-6 in Game 3 of their match against No. 28 seeds Casey Diamond/Max Freeman, but they came all the way back to prevent the upset and steal an 11-5, 7-11, 12-10 victory after saving one match point.
This win is a nice, albeit stressful, end to the day for Johnson, who is celebrating his 22nd birthday. He advanced to the Round of 16 in men's singles, mixed doubles, and men's doubles.
Johnson/Frazier will face No. 13 seeds Hunter Johnson/Rafa Hewett on Thursday with a spot in the quarterfinals on the line.
5:30 p.m. CT: Bellamy withdraws from singles due to foot injury
Roscoe Bellamy is withdrawing from the men's singles draw with a foot injury.
He made the Round of 16 after an 11-8, 5-11, 11-2 victory over Todd Fought on Wednesday, but he made the decision to end his tournament early on Wednesday afternoon.
This means that No. 8 seeds Hunter Johnson will move into the quarterfinals, where he'll face either Connor Garnett or qualifier Oliver Frank.
4:45 p.m. CT: Sock, Shick advance to Round of 16 in three games
There must be something about three-game victories that is particularly enjoyable for Jack Sock and Collin Shick, since both of their wins this week have required a deciding game.
Their latest 8-11, 11-7, 11-3 triumph over No. 16 seeds Pesa Teoni/Craig Johnson puts them into Wednesday’s Round of 16.
They will next face No. 3 seeds Matt Wright/Federico Staksrud.
3:55 p.m. CT: Glozman, Frazier battle past Schneemann, Tardio in mixed doubles
Vivian Glozman/Dylan Frazier are into the mixed doubles Round of 16 after an 8-11, 11-8, 11-1 victory over No. 12 seeds Lacy Schneemann/Gabe Tardio.
The No. 19 seeds dropped a tightly contested first game, but they responded well in the second and evened the match.
From there, they jumped out to an 8-0 lead in Game 3 that helped them close out the encounter.
They will face No. 7 seeds Tina Pisnik/Dekel Bar on Thursday with a spot in the quarterfinals on the line.
3:15 p.m. CT: Mg. Brascia wins 'Sister Showdown' in mixed doubles, makes R16 with McGuffin
