Matthew prevails once again over Willstrop

NICK MATTHEW continued his dominance over Yorkshire rival James Willstrop with victory in an epic two-hour plus Canary Wharf Classic semi-final.

Injury eventually robbed Willstrop on match point in the fifth game, handing Matthew a day of final reckoning with No 2 seed Gregory Gaultier on Friday on the back of an 11-7, 5-11, 18-20, 11-8, 10-8 triumph.
