New Zealand's Dan King-Turner has scored one of the best wins of his career with a three set victory over former top 15 player and 2005 US Open semifinals Robby Ginepri this morning at the US$50,000 Binghampton Challenger in New York.

King-Turner has been in good form of late, winning a Futures tournament in Canada, however his win over Ginepri who is seeded fifth with a current ranking of 187 in two hours two minutes 6-7(2) 6-4 6-4 with 20 aces to his credit will be a highlight for his career which not so long ago was doubtful with nagging injuries.

There was only four points the difference in the match – the Kiwi winning 98 in total to the American’s 94. King-Turner managed to break Ginepri’s serve twice out of the five break points he had. While Ginepri had four break points on King-Turner’s serve but could not convert any of them.

In the quarterfinals King-Turner will now face American Rhyme Williams who earlier defeated top seed Dudi Sella from Israel.

The Kiwi also has a first round doubles to play where he has teamed up with Frenchman Gleb Sakharov. They play Brit Jamie Baker and American Christian Harrison in their match.
