"I have no idea when his problems started," Seppi said. "I tried to focus on my game and did not notice that anything was wrong with him." It will be Seppis fourth appearance in the quarterfinals at Umag in as many years. He improved his record to 9-3, with his best results being the semifinals in 2009 and 2010 -- when he lost both times to Spains Juan Carlos Ferrero.
