Johnston Williams defeated Doeg Lott 9-7 6-4 10-12 8-6, and Tilden Hunter beat Williams Hennessey 5-7 6-2 6-2 6-8. The finalists will join France in next week's Davis Cup context as Williams Hennessey and Doeg Lott show strong form. The Dock and Lott versus Johnson and Williams provided a tight marathon, with a 12-10 third set and a late roar in fourth. The Cubs and Reds contest in Cincinnati saw Williams Hennessey and partners struggle, while Tilden and Hunter faced stiff net play and backcourt drives from Wimbledon champions in earlier rounds.
