Santoro continues his strong play in Newport

NEWPORT, R.I.—Two-time defending champion Fabrice Santoro continued his dominance at the Hall of Fame Tennis Championships on Friday, winning a pair of matches to advance to the semifinals.

Santoro, 36, the oldest singles player on the ATP tour, raised his record to 12-0 on Newport’s grass courts. He has lost just one set at the International Tennis Hall of Fame.

Santoro will face third-seeded Sam Querrey, a 6-3, 6-4 winner over seventh-seeded fellow American Kevin Kim, after Saturday’s induction ceremonies on center court. Monica Seles highlights the 2009 class.
