India's Leander Paes and Czech Lukas Dlouhy entered the French Open tennis doubles semi-final with a 6-2, 7-6(5) win over Bruno Soares of Brazil and Zimbabwean Kevin Ullyett in Paris on Monday.

The third-seeded Indo-Czech pair broke the fifth-seeded pair of Soares and Ullyett thrice to close the match in 88 minutes.

Paes and Dlouhy have lost just a set on their way to the semi-finals and will face either the top seeds and 2008 finalists Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic or Russians Igor Kunitsyn and Dmitry Tursunov.
