Oh dear.

Do they play 3 sets here, or is it one of those diabolical match tiebreak things?

Champions tie break i'm afraid, but at least if Aucks wins this set they should have the momentum going into the super breaker

I can't say I'm struck with this no advantage rule, either.

Suppose I'm just an old-fashioned traditionalist!

I guess it's another way to try and make the doubles matches more exciting

Lipsky to serve 2-3,

15-0
30-0
GSM Lipsky/Martin, Aucks and Huss retired

For the record Lipsky/Martin bt Auckland/Huss 6-3, 2-3 ret

I'm not sure if this is seen in the same light as a walk-over where Auckland wouldn't receive any ranking points for the tournament (concessions are viewed as a loss in the previous round of the tournament).

We'll see when the ranking points are updated on Monday (unless someone knows the exact rule interpretation!!)

So Auckland will drop at least one place in the world rankings when they are released on Monday.

Jamie Murray and Butorac are on court next, Jamie knowing that a win would take him back to British number 1, and provisionally up to a career high WR62!!

Murray and Butorac are on the scoreboard, presumably warming up

Really horrible luck for Auckland and Huss - especially after their good win in the first round. :( Hopefully it's nothing too serious.

Well, c'mon Jamie and Eric - give us some good doubles news tonight.
