Qualification for the semi-finals was already assured before the meeting, but Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Nicolas Mahut made a point of validating it with a victory over the Murray-Soares pair (6-3, 7-6 [5]), Friday, in the red group.
If Herbert was particularly bleeding, the French also took advantage of Soares’ completely missed match. They will play their semi-final against the pair Granollers-Zeballos, first in the green group.
