Tom Jarvis and Tin-Tin Ho were both knocked out of the Czech Youth Open in the last 16.

Luke Savill also triumphed in a seventh set, shading the decider 13-11 against Nikola Marinkovic of Serbia in the last 64. He succumbed to third seed Tomas Polansky of the host nation in the next round.

Alex Ramsden was defeated by 10th seed Artur Abusev of Russia in the last 64 in Hodonin.
