Out of luck Tuesday morning was young Sligo player Cormac Finn. The Ballymote star had to deal with personal grief following the passing of his grandfather Padraig on Monday and had an emotional win over Basque Mikel Beldarrain in a wafer-thin 11-10 tiebreaker in the round of 16. However, a bold bid against American ace Tywan Cook came up short as the decorated New Yorker scraped home 21-20, 21-20.
Elsewhere, top-ranked UK player Luke Thomson was comfortable in turning back American Arthur Sayed in straight games while 19-year-old Armagh man Fiachra Ó Dúill played superbly in defeat, losing a tiebreaker to American Julio Carlos.
