Titles up for grabs in Europe

Quarter finals have been reached in Moscow (ATP), Antwerp (ATP), and Stockholm (ATP)

Semi Finals have been determined in Moscow (WTA) and Luxembourg (WTA)

Stockholm has gone as per the seedings, the final eight being:

Grigor Dimitrov (1) v Mischa Zverev (5)

Jack Sock (3) v Fabio Fognini (6)

Yuichi Sugita (7) v Juan Martin del Potro (4)

Fernando Verdasco (8) v Kevin Anderson (2)

Elsewhere, being a seed has not necessarily been a guarantee for success.

In Moscow, Julia Goerges (7) was the only seed left in the quarter finals, and she survived through to the final four:

Daria Kasatkina v Irina-Camelia Begu

Natalia Vikhlyantseva v Julia Goerges (7) 

Not all that brighter for the men’s supposed best of the field. Here is the final eight:

Daniil Medvedev v Mirza Basic - Daniil knocked out the top seed Pablo Carreno Busta while qualifier Mirza has burst into his first ATP main draw of 2017 and is making a big run of it.

Andreas Seppi v Damir Dzumhur (6) - Seppi dismisses 4th seed Philipp Kohlschreiber in the second round.

Dudi Sela v Adrian Mannarino (3) - Sela did not meet a seed until now due to the late withdrawal of eighth seed Karen Khachanov.

Ricardas Berankis v Alexander Bublik - Berankis made the main draw because of a protected ranking and Bublick, a lucky loser from qualifying, rode his luck by defeating second seed Albert Ramos-Vinolas. 

Antwerp quarter finals are:

David Goffin (1) v Stefanos Tsitsipas - qualifier Tsitsipas, ranked 122, beat 6th seed Pablo Cuevas in the opening round, and had the measure of big serving Ivo Karlovic before the Croatian retired, a set down. Neither player had dropped serve in the match to that point.

Diego Schwartzman (4) v David Ferrer (5)

Joao Sousa v Ruben Bemelmans - Sousa defeated Benoit Paire (7) and Bemelmans shocked Nick Kyrgios - after taking the first set in a tie break, and winning 89% of points on his first serve, Nick just fell in a screaming heap, points won on first serve dropping to around 50% for the rest of the match. The 98th ranked Belgian used seven extra years on Nick to full advantage.

Julien Benneteau v Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (2)

We could still have the top two seeds in the final.

In Luxembourg the final four will do battle as follows:

Monica Puig v Elise Mertens (5) - Monica can do no wrong, it seems, since defeating top seed, Angie Kerber, in the first round 

Pauline Parmentier v Carina Witthoeft - Carina defeated 8th seed Varvara Lepchenko in the first round and Kiki Bertens (2) in the quarter finals.
