These two are absolutely amazing. Nothing seems to phase them - set down, match points down - easy peasy. What a great pair to watch so to speak. I do hope we get chance to see them in the final. Well done. Magic.

I sent Jamie and Eric a congratulations email and here was Jamie's response.
hey craig hows things?
thanks a lot..was a really good match...were down all the way but found a way to win...not sure who we play in final as they play tonight...hope all is well in dallas
Phenomenal stuff. What a partnership! Played 15 matches together and only defeat was against potentially the best doubles team of all time! Just considering that jamie is defending satellite points shows just how far he has come in a yr.
This should be a very unusual final. Knowle/Melzer are also lefties. We haven't seen a doubles final with 4 lefties since 1995, featuring Luke and Murphy Jensen and Patrick Galbraith and Danie Visser.
Jamie must be in dreamland right now.....quickly becoming established on the ATP circuit....and playing weekend tennis.....(not qualies tennis)....and just to round a great week off.....he is playing a match after Andy has been knocked out !
Well done Jamie.....he better be in the DC team !!!!
Thanks for the scores (I know I'm very late in that but I went away for the weekend).
Great to see Jamie and Bootie come back from set/match points down. What time are they playing this evening? Are Eurosport showing them? If so can someone give commentary please!
I agree, Jamie has throughly staked his claim to a DC spot. Two weeks ago I was completely torn between him and Aucks but now there is no question in my mind (sorry James).
Good luck to them tonight. A win this evening would bring Jamie equal with Andy on ATP titles and one better in variety! (just an extra incentive for Jamie to win!)
