The Swedish pair Jacob Hölting Nilsson and Elmer Anderson's successes continue in the world tour tournament in Gstaad. Now a semifinal awaits the young talent duo.

It became a victory in the quarterfinals against the Brazilian pair Evandro/Arthur Lanci, ranked fifth in the world. The Swedes won in two straight sets, 21-16, 21-19.

For Jacob Hölting Nilsson, 20, and Elmer Anderson, 18, a semifinal now awaits on Saturday evening, where the opposition is not yet clear.

The tournament is part of the elite 16 – the highest level of the world tour – and the Swedish duo has never previously reached this far.
