Donegal’s Rachel Darragh and Louth’s Scott Guildea from Louth made it through to the last 16 of the Dutch Open international challenge event.
Having beaten last week’s Croatian international winners Alexander Pedersen of Denmark and Serena Au Yeong of Austria 21-13, 12-21, 21-18 in a thrilling 50 minute match, they were then up against the number six seeds., Jeppe Søby and Sofie Røjkjær.
However, the Danish pair won 21-15, 21-12 to deny the Irish mixed doubles pair a place in the quarter-finals.
