So they have I'm hoping senior Murray doesn't have one of his famous collapses and chucks this lead away. Booty and Fisher have broken serve.
Great news and Booty and Fisher have won too, 6-3 6-2. I know Booty ain't a Brit but...
Both pairs are in action on the same court today: Booty & Fish first on Court 3 against Cermak & Friedl, who dumped out the 3rd seeds, Aspelin & Knowle, 5 & 4 yesterday (which leaves only the 1st (Bhupathi & Zimonjic) & the 4th (our old Polish friends, Fyrstenberg & Matkowski) still in the draw! ). That match kicks off at 15.00 BST (weather permitting!), then there're are two more doubles matches, a women's & the men's match that will decide whom BB & Kerr face in the SFs, should they make it past Kuznetsov & Sweeting - the Poles vs Levinsky & Perry - before our boys walk on court. Fingers crossed...
