LOS ANGELES, July 29 (UPI) -- Two-time champion Sam Querrey will seek to regain the Farmers Classic crown after he and Lithuanian Ricardas Berankis scored semifinal victories Saturday.

Querrey, who won the event in 2009 and 2010, bested fellow American Rajeev Ram in one of the semis. He used 11 aces to record the victory in 96 minutes.

Qualifier Berankis, meanwhile, dispatched sixth-seeded Marinko Matosevic 7-5, 6-1 in Saturday's other matchup.

The Lithuanian had upended fourth-seeded Frenchman Nicolas Mahut Friday to gain just his second career ATP Tour semifinal.
