The German pair are no mugs. Hopefully they are concentrating on their singles exploits though.

Is there a webcam for this tournament?

Not that I've been able to find.  Been trying to get into the Dnipropetrovsk site all day.  The message I was getting at work was that it was experiencing "technical problems" & something about Apache & Centos (???) that I'm too computer-illiterate to fathom! hmm  Clearly, said problems still haven't been resolved...! cry

And if the above result is true their next opponents will be Viktor Troicki (Srb) and Yuri Schukin (Rus).

At least they won so we'll have the chance to watch them in action later this week

Quality result from Aucks and Hutch....those German guys were good, have both been top 100 in singles....was a bit disappointing they didnt make it past quarters in Bratislava given their seeding but hopefully they can reach semis at least this week

Courts in Ukraine are faster than Bratislava which will help

Plus I'm told that the local girls of Dnepropetrovsk are some of the best looking on tour....thats the reason why so many of the guys who normally just play singles, have entered doubles this week...an excuse for maximising their time there. (I'm serious about this !!!)

Good win for Aucks/Hutchins here, and hopefully they can carry on their run here (should be able to beat Troicki/Schukin) so they can gain a load more ranking points (and for their sake, spend more time with the good looking ladies)

Now on the ATP site as 6-7(5) 6-2 [10-2], so slightly better than previously reported! wink  Well done, boys! smile clap.gif  And they will indeed face Troicki & Schukin in the QFs, though not tomorrow...
