The Chan sisters put in a double shift on Wednesday at the rain-hit Aegon International in
Eastbourne, England, to reach the semi-finals of the doubles, while Agnieszka Radwanska relied on a steady serve and a solid game to beat Eugenie Bouchard and advance to the quarter-finals of the singles in a battle of former Wimbledon finalists.
Second seeds Chan Hao-ching and Chan Yung-jan took just 50 minutes to advance to the quarter-finals with a comfortable 6-2, 6-2 victory over Sara Errani of Italy and Oksana Kalashnikova of Georgia in the first round of the doubles.
The Taiwanese sisters did not face a single break point and converted four of eight, winning 48 of the 80 points contested to advance to a tricky quarter-final against Raquel Atawo and Abigail Spears.
The Taiwanese duo returned to the grass courts at Devonshire Park later on Wednesday and fought back from a set down to complete a 4-6, 6-2, 10-8 victory over the American duo in 1 hour, 29 minutes. [FULL STORY]
