...Crimson secured the equalizer through Felton’s fine early win, opening the floodgates for a straight-set singles whitewash. Hot on the heels of the Felton’s success, No. 2 Chijoff-Evans beat Kincaid (6-4, 6-2) with a delicate drop shot, before Hayes secured a 7-5, 6-4 win over Kurdadze...

The protesters are demanding that Somchai resign and dissolve parliament. Their goal is to prevent Somchai's ruling People Power Party from rewriting the constitution to, in the words of the PAD, "whitewash the crimes" committed by former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra "and his cronies."
