Week 43 - ATP - Lyon


Another one to flag up, as Jamie Murray is reunited with one of his many erstwhile partners, the Aussie, Jordan Kerr, for this tournament.  They're unseeded & play the Argentines, Martín García & Sebastián Prieto in the first round.  The latter were the top seeds in Andrézieux last week (they reached today's all-Argentine final with Acasuso & Hartfield, but I don't think it's been played yet...), so a tough opening match! eyepopping.gif

It's been played now. wink Garcia and Prieto running out winners, 6-3 6-1. Murray and Kerr better not take this one too lightly. weirdface

Today's OoP has finally gone up on the Lyon site (still no sign of it when I last checked just before 11! rolleyes.gif ) & BB & Kerr are due to get their campaign under way on Court 1 at 13.00 BST. clap.gif Go on, lads, let's have a pleasant surprise in Lyon for a change!

On now. Kerr/Murray lead 2-1 on serve, and the scoreboard has crashed for a few minutes with Garcia/Prieto leading 30-0 on their serve.

All that effort to no avail. They'll need to up their game here. They are just ahead ranking-wise but Garcia and Prieto are on a roll.
