Bhupathi-Mirnyi go down fighting

Mahesh Bhupathi and Max Mirnyi lost their ATP World Tour Finals Group B matchu00a0 7-6(5), 7-6(1) to second seeds Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic last night. The result means Nestor and Zimonjic qualify for the semi-finals in top position from Group B. Earlier in the day, Wesley Moodie and Dick Norman defeated Lukasz Kubot and Oliver Marach in straight sets, leaving Nestor and Zimonjic only needing to win to secure their place in the semi-finals for the second time in three appearances. Bhupathi-Mirnyi face Moodie-Norman next on Friday and the winner of that game will clinch the second qualifying spot in the group.
