Leander Paes and his Czech partner Martin Damm came up with a clinical show as they thrashed the Danish-German pair of Kristian Pless and Benjamin Becker in straight sets to advance into the semi-finals of the 353,450 euro Ordina in the Netherlands.
The Indo-Czech cruised to a comfortable 6-4, 6-4 victory.
In the first round match, the top seeded duo struggled before overcoming the unfainced French pair of Nicolas Devilder and and Julien Benneteau 6-7 (1), 7-5, 13-11.
Paes-Damm will take on the winner of the quarter-final between Michael Kohlmann of Germany and Robert Lindstedt of Sweden, and Swiss Yves Allegro and Jim Thomas of America.
