It was Knowl who really struggled on serve against Jamie and Butorac last week. Maybe Jamie has passed on some info...

game, and Aucks breaks Knowles serve again. A/F lead 4-3

(Huss and Phillips have just started on centre court meaning there is only one more match up - the Bryans v Moodie/Perry - left in round one, so unlikely to see Jamie and Butorac this week)

30-15 double fault Aucks (so it was Aucks who dropped his serve earlier)
