Unseeded Mexican Jorge Isaac Baltazar Ferreira produced the only upset on the opening day of the XI Abierto Colombian Open when he defeated fifth seed Rafael F Alarcon to reach the quarter-finals of the $30,000 PSA Tour squash event at Club El Nogal in Bogotá, Colombia.

Baltazar Ferreira, a 25-year-old from Mexico City, despatched the Brazilian 13-11, 11-9, 11-3 in 47 minutes to set up a meeting with top seed Adrian Grant.  Englishman Grant recovered from a game down to beat Canadian qualifier Andrew McDonald 10-12, 11-6, 11-2, 11-2.

Mexico's Salazar twins had mixed fortunes in Bogotá:  Arturo Salazar, the No7 seed, defeated local player Mauricio Salinas 11-9, 11-5, 11-2 in just 22 minutes, while Cesar Salazar - who, unlike his 20-year-old brother, had to qualify - faced experienced third-seeded compatriot Eric Galvez for the third time on the PSA Tour in the last 12 months.

In an emotive game and widely-disputed match, Galvez always imposed his rhythm.  Salazar only threatened his supremacy in the final game, where he showed his constant improvement and talent - but it Galvez again that prevailed, winning 11-5, 11-7, 13-11 in 47 minutes.
