Sam Walker and doubles partner Aleksandr Khanin made it through to the men’s doubles quarter-finals at the WTT Contender Novo Mesto in Slovenia.

The pair came through their last 16 clash 3-1 against Australian duo Dillon Chambers & Xavier Dixon today and were next due to face the second seeds, Liang Jingkun & Wang Chuqin of China.

However, they had to concede the match as Khanin was booked on a flight to Moscow which could not be changed.
