Drummondville, November 19, 2022 – The singles draw at the Drummondville National Bank Challenger has reached the semifinal stage with four players remaining in title contention at the $80,000 ATP Challenger Tour event being held at the René-Verrier Indoor Tennis Club in Drummondville, Quebec until November 20.
One of the semifinalists is Canadian Vasek Pospisil (Vernon, BC) who defeated Harold Mayot of France 6-3, 7-6(3) in Friday’s quarter-finals. The 32-year-old veteran, seeded third in the tournament, wrapped up the opening set in a timely fashion and erased a break deficit in the second frame to secure a straight sets victory. On Saturday, Pospisil will appear in his sixth Challenger semifinal of the season when he takes on sixth-seeded Frenchman Antoine Escoffier who needed more than three hours to get the better of Aziz Dougaz of Tunisia 6-7(13), 7-6(5), 7-6(2) in his round of eight contest.
