Watch Live On Saturday: Semis Set In Nottingham

It is the largest public tennis facility in Great Britain and this week the Nottingham Tennis Centre plays host to one of the most prestigious ATP Challenger Tour events on the calendar.

The Nature Valley Open in Nottingham is the middle event of the three-week grass-court swing on the circuit. Last week, Aussie teen Alex de Minaur reached the final in Surbiton and this week the #NextGenATP star is pushing towards another appearance in a championship match.

De Minaur will face Ilya Ivashka of Belarus in Saturday’s semi-finals. The 19-year-old broke into the Top 100 of the ATP Rankings thanks to his run in Surbiton and World No. 115 Ivashka will look to do the same with a title this week. In search of his maiden Challenger crown, De Minaur would also move up to fifth in the ATP Race to Milan with a title.

In the other semi-final, home hope Daniel Evans looks to continue his hot streak against Spanish veteran Marcel Granollers. Evans is 9-1 on the grass with consecutive semi-final appearances in Surbiton and Nottingham. He claimed their lone previous encounter, rallying from a set down at the 2017 Sydney International.
