Ross Hutchins continues his partnership with Stephen Huss, first round they play Michael Brands & Mischa Zverev.

As well he might, given that they've just crept inside the top 50 in the SAA doubles race (49th, to be precise)! smile

P.S. It's Michael Berrer & Mischa Zverev whom they face not before 16.00 BST in R1 tomorrow! wink

Probably as Zverev was at 1 set all with Bolelli when play was suspended, so H and H wouldn't have got on the court.

Looks like that match will be finished tomorrow, but it's not on the order of play, so that one out must be a provisional one that will be changed later on tonight.

And no H and H in doubles, but Zverev would have another singles match, so I'm guessing a Thursday start for the doubles then

Revised OOP in out, and H and H are last on centre court against Berrer and Zverev

Interestingly, Zverev eventually lost his singles match with Bolelli earlier (2-6 in the third), while Berrer won his, but only by virtue of Almagro's retiring at the end of the first set, which Berrer had taken 7-5. Life may also suddenly have become a little bit easier for H&H, if they can but get past B&Z: Berlocq & Cuevas have just taken out the second seeds, Knowle & Melzer, whom most people would have expected to be their QF opponents, 4 & 4! biggrin

Tie-break won to 2. Now for the MTB. must be kicking in.

helki · Futures qualifying

Damn! I felt sure they'd turned this one round. cry

No! Berrer & Zverev won 6-2 6-7(2) [10-6]. How do you win a tie-break to 2 and then go down 10-6?
