Honolulu's Lam withdraws from Futures tennis event

Advertiser Staff

Honolulu's Chris Lam went into the $10,000 Dick's Sporting Goods Futures event at Pittsburgh with a career-high No. 2 seed in singles. He came out with first-round losses in singles and doubles and a sore right wrist and shoulder that forced him to withdraw from next week's $10,000 Peoria Futures.

After losing in doubles, Lam fell to Tigran Martirosyan, 6-4, 6-2, then returned to California to take care of his injuries.

Last Sunday, Lam and Gregory Ouellette fell in the doubles final of the $10,000 Buffalo Bills Futures in Rochester, N.Y.. They lost to fellow Americans Cory Parr and Todd Paul, 6-4, 6-1.
