Day seven: Hewett finishes runner-up to Oda in men's final
Alfie Hewett's sixth Singles Masters final since 2017 ended in a 6-1, 6-1 loss to an in-form Tokito Oda as the British No.1 picked up his second runners-up trophy in successive days in Huzhou.
Broken to love in his opening service game of the men’s singles final, Hewett struggled to find his rhythm until his first ace of the match in the third game galvanised the world No.2 and he battled to take a long game.
However, that was as much success as Hewett was able to find in the opening set and although he broke the Japanese top seed’s serve to begin the second set, it was just not Hewett’s day.
Oda found a way to thwart the best that the 10-time Grand Slam singles champion was able to offer on the day and Hewett returns home with singles and doubles runner-up trophies after partnering Gordon Reid to Saturday’s men’s doubles final.
Recent results
Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid’s bid to become four-time Doubles Masters champions ended in a last-gasp loss to Martin de la Puente and Ruben Spaargaren, as the Spanish, Dutch duo claimed a 6-4, 1-6, 14-12.
Top seeds and three-time champions Hewett and Reid took a 4-3 lead in the first set, but were unable to build on their momentum and back-to-back love games for De la Puente and Spaargaren saw them take the opening set.
However, the 23-time Grand Slam winning pair quickly put the opening set behind them and broke the service games of both of their opponents twice as they sped through the second set to force the deciding match tie-break.
A fourth Doubles Masters title since 2017 looked a strong possibility as Hewett and Reid built a 6-2 lead, but their advantage slowly petered away until De la Puente and Spaargaren earned the first of their four match points at 9-8.
Hewett and Reid fought back to earn their first and only match point at 12-11, but were unable to take the opportunity.
Hewett will now bid for a fourth Singles Masters title on Sunday when he takes on world No.1 and defending champion Tokito Oda of Japan.
Meanwhile, Lapthorne and Heath Davidson have finished quad Doubles Masters runners-up after losing out to Guy Sasson and Niels Vink 6-2, 6-0.
Top seeds Sasson and Vink got off to a flying start as they quickly opened up a 3-0 lead over the reigning Australian Open champions. The British, Australian duo managed to recover the deficit by etching back-to-back games on the board to pull the scoreboard back to 3-2.
However, Vink and Sasson - who claimed three Grand Slam together titles this season at Roland Garros, Wimbledon and at the US Open - soon proved their quality as they rattled off nine successive games to seal the silverware in China.
Singles
An all-British battle between doubles partners saw Alfie Hewett beat Gordon Reid 7-5, 6-3 to reach his sixth Singles Masters final in seven years.
The world No.2 opened up a 5-4 lead and was given the chance to serve for the set before Reid drew back level to keep himself in it. However, another break from Hewett gave him another chance to take the lead, as he eventually closed out the set at the third time of asking.
Reid looked to fight back in the second and had a break point on his compatriot's serve to take a 4-2 lead but Hewett held strong before finding one final break to seal his spot in the singles final.
Doubles
Hewett and Reid then combined to take on home favourites Shunjiang Dong and Zhenxu Ji, with the British pairing clinching a 6-4, 6-1 win.
After edging a close opener, the three-time Doubles Masters champions found their stride in the second - winning five games on the bounce to confirm their spot in the final in an hour and 22 minutes.
Saturday's final will mark Hewett and Reid's fifth Doubles Masters final, where they will bid to become the first four-time champions.
Lapthorne booked his spot in the quad Doubles Masters final after he and Heath Davidson pulled off a comeback win over Francisco Cayulef and Gonzalo Enrique Lazarte 4-6, 6-3, `0-5.
The British, Australian pairing needed an hour and 34 minutes to secure the win, and remain unbeaten as a doubles partnership.
The pair will face top seeds Guy Sasson and Niels Vink in the final.
Greg Slade’s hopes of joining Andy Lapthorne, Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid in the semi-final of the Doubles Masters ended in a 6-2, 6-2 defeat for the British No.2 and his doubles partner Jin Woodman in their second quad doubles group match.
Slade and Woodman - who had previously reached the US Open semi-finals together - kept pace with Lexus British Open finalists Ahmet Kaplan and Sam Schroder for the first four games of their decisive group match.
However, the Turkish-Dutch duo reeled off the last four games to seize the opening set. Both Slade and Woodman dropped their serves early in the second set and from then on out, the task proved too much against a duo playing their sixth tournament together, as Kaplan and Schroder booked their spot in Friday's semi-finals.
Singles
Gordon Reid produced the outstanding result out of the four matches involving Brits on the third day of the Masters in Huzhou, China. The British No.2 defeated world No.3 Gustavo Fernandez 7-5, 6-4 to make it three successive wins over the Argentine since early October.
World No.5 Reid saw a 4-2 lead disappear before converting his third set point at 6-5 to take the opener against the third seed.
Trailing an early break in the second set, Reid turned the tide before going on to serve out the match to love after 2 hours and 13 minutes to finish second in his group behind world No.1 Tokito Oda.
Next up, he'll take on doubles partner Alfie Hewett in an all-British men's singles semi-final.
World No.2 and three-time Singles Masters champion Hewett confirmed his place in the final four and at the top of his group after defeating world No. 9 Casey Ratzlaff 6-1, 6-3 in 67 minutes to finish the round-robin stage undefeated.
Hewett and Reid will now go head-to-head at the Singles Masters for the fourth time since first meeting at the year-end championships in the 2017 men’s singles final in Loughborough.
With Andy Lapthorne already through to Friday’s quad doubles semi-finals, the British No.1’s bid to reach the quad singles semis ended in a straight sets loss to Turkey’s Ahmet Kaplan.
Needing to beat Kaplan, just as he had done in this year’s Lexus Eastbourne Open final, Lapthorne lost out 6-2, 6-1 to finish third in his group.
Doubles
Later in the day the top seeds and three-time Double Masters champions Hewett and Reid also confirmed their place at the top of their group in the men’s doubles.
The all-British pair defeated Stephane Houdet and Ratzlaff 6-2, 6-3 and head into the last four as the doubles duo to beat.
It was another winning day for our British stars at the Wheelchair Tennis Masters with Alfie Hewett, Gordon Reid and Andy Lapthorne all clinching victories in China.
Singles
World No.2 Hewett ensured his return to the men’s singles semis after the three-time champion beat Spain’s world No.4 Martin de la Puente 3-6, 6-3, 6-2.
Up against the player he beat to lift his maiden Wimbledon singles title back in 2023, Hewett came from behind to win six games in a row before sealing the final set convincingly against the Spaniard.
Hewett will now play the USA’s Casey Ratzlaff in his final match of the round-robin phase in the hopes of finishing top in his group.
Meanwhile, Reid beat Dutchman Ruben Spaargaren 6-4, 6-4 to etch his first singles victory at this year's tournament.
Three-time Singles Masters finalist Reid broke Spaargaren in the sixth game of the opening set. The Dutchman managed to recover the deficit before the British No.2 fought back to secure the opening set.
Reid again made his move in the sixth game of the second set and this time maintained his advantage to secure the win and level his career head-to-head against Spaargaren at 5-5.
Next up, he'll play Argentina's Gustavo Fernandez in the final group-stage match.
In the quad singles draw, Lapthorne beat Gonzalo Lazarte 6-1, 6-2 in an hour and 13 minutes to remain unbeaten in his last three matches against the Argentinian.
Lapthorne will now play Turkey’s Ahmet Kaplan, the player he beat in the final of this year’s Lexus Eastbourne Open, to decide who joins world No.1 Niels Vink in the semi-finals.
Doubles
Following on from his singles victory, Lapthorne then joined forces with Heath Davidson for their second match in the quad doubles group stages.
The second seeds came through a tense meeting against Lexus British Open runners-up Ahmet Kaplan and Sam Schroder 6-2, 2-6, 10-8 to finish top of their group and book a spot in the final four.
Singles
World No.2 Alfie Hewett made a winning start on the opening day of the Wheelchair Tennis Masters in China.
Hewett needed just 55 minutes to defeat world No.6 Stephane Houdet 6-1, 6-0 in his first of three round-robin group matches.
The 10-time Grand Slam singles champion will also play Martin De La Puente and Casey Ratzlaff in his remaining group matches.
