Tennis : Jones makes final round of Qualifying of US$50,000 Challenger

New Zealand's GD Jones seeded third in the qualifying received a bye in the first round of the McDonalds Burnie Men's US$50,000 Challenger in Burnie, Australia, and came up against Andrew Gregory (AUS) to win 6/2 6/1 to advance to the final round. Jones now has to play fifth seed Sadik Kadir (AUS) to firm his spot in the main draw.
