Just waiting for the singles MD to appear on my laptop, but have the doubles draw now. Sam and Bibiane Schoofs (NED) are top seeds and play a Canadian WC pair Tara and Emina are 3rd seeds and play another Canadian pair.
Staying in Texas, Lissey and Emily App appear to have made the MD together with Katie S and Jodie, since the top q seed was below them in the q draw. Hope Jodie is ok this week too.
Again, there are SO many Brits here at this event that it seems to warrant its own thread: R1 BOYS: Oliver RICHARDS (GBR) 6-0 6-4 Andrej JOVANOVIC (SRB) (Q) Daniel ABERNETHY (GBR) 5-7 6-4 6-2 Pablo TROCHU (FRA) [6] Alexander KNOX JONES (GBR) [5] 6-0 6-0 (WC) Mohamme...

QR1: Robert Lindstedt (SWE) & Jonny O'Mara CR 124 (75+49) vs (q2) Santiago González & Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi (MEX/PAK) CR 111 (57+54) Interesting choice of partner for Jonny. Lindstedt's now 42... They'll play Lajovic & Ramos if they qualify. ***** L16: Jamie Murray & Neal Sk...
QR1: Nikita Chuev (RUS) UNR vs (q9) Alexander Jhun WR 1559 (CH = 1034 in February 2016) Alex has the dubious privilege of (probably) playing the Chinese q1, Wang Chukang, if he wins that one! QR1: Daniil Domninskyi (UKR) UNR vs (q14) Elliott Farmer UNR QR1: (q7) Sam Taylor (SWE) WR 1394 (= CH) vs Samu...

L48: Zdenek Kolar (CZE) WR 277 (CH = 208 in August last year) vs James Ward WR 291 (CH = 89 in July 2015) If he wins, Dino will face Paolo Lorenzi (10) in the last 32.
L28: Feliciano López (ESP) WR 61 (CH = 17 in March 2015) vs Cameron Norrie WR 64 (CH = 41 in May) The winner will play Stan the Man (4/WC) L28: (PR) Andy Murray WR 289 (CH = 1 in November 2016) vs (WC) Kimmer Coppejans (BEL) WR 161 (CH = 97 in June 2015) The winner will play Pablo Cuevas (8) or Hugo Dellien
