he overcame number one seed and good friend Michael Way in a three-set semi-final last night.

It was sweet revenge for Frigerio, who was Way's semi-final victim in the recent Heineken Open, and it sets him up for a crack at the title against 21-year-old James Collieson, who came back from a set behind to beat host club Pomander Gate's pro Dean Mello.

Frigerio, seeded three, ran out a 6-4, 3-6, 7-5 winner over Way while number two seed Collieson triumphed 3-6, 6-4, 6-3.

In the mixed, partnered by Eldon Daniels, she will take on Wendy Gelhay and Colie Place.
