scoobs - their combined ranking wasn't high enough to make the doubles draw here, so it was quite lucky that both managed to find scratch partners

Ahh I see!

Thanks for that

Yes I guess they were lucky to find available higher ranker partners so they'd make the cutoff separately.

Oh lor, I hate matches decided by tiebreaks.

scoobsuk · Club Coach

Aucks has been a bit vulnerable on serve - I think most of their DFs have been his.

I hope he can hold it together here.

scoobsuk · Club Coach

Auckland and Fisher stretch to a 6-3 lead. Can they hold onto it?

scoobsuk · Club Coach

7-4 double minibreak now

On the other hand, maybe I like tiebreaks
