In the semis (at 17.00 BST tomorrow), they will meet de Heart/Kuznetsov or (WC) Mirzadeah/Sykut - the WCs beat no. 2 seeds Ball & Martin by the odd-looking score of 6-2 0-6 10:7 in R1.


Mirzadeh & Sykut are obviously real battlers, as they made de Heart & Kuznetsov work for their victory:  3-6 7-6(3) [10-7]! disbelief

I second helki's remark about the doubles boys keeping things interesting for us in the latter half of a week in which the singles players have yet again largely failed miserably. biggrin  Heart-warming win for Col & Ken.  thumbsup.gif  Fingers crossed that they can keep going all the way to that title! pray.gif

Here are the approximate ranking changes if they lose the final:
Skupski 189 -> 176
Fleming 243 -> 221

And if they win:
Skupski 189 -> 167
Fleming 243 -> 206

i didn't take into account other people's movements...my name's not Steven after all!

What a great achievement. I didn't expect them to get this far but nowt seems to be impossible for the CK combo. Wonder if it'll be Booty & pal in the final?

Great news this, but think it might be the final nail in the coffin for Ken's single career. This is taking Ken upto a new level and means a doubles career is more attainable than in singles.

Be interesting to see how far they can go together, whether they could reach the top 100 or not.
