James Feaver has teamed up with an unknown (to me) Aussie, Joshua Crowe, & the pair (WR2683) appears to have a better chance of success against the unranked Greeks, Charalampos Kapogiannis & Konstantinos Mikos.


James & Josh triumphed by 3 & 4 ( smile ).  They will face the Romanian third seeds, Marius Copil & Petru-Alexandru Luncanu (WR1107), in the QF. hmm

Unfortunately, James couldn't quite keep his momentum from the singles (Crowe lost in three to the eighth seed, Mergea) going in the doubles.  Had a good go, though:  he & Josh lost to the third seeds by 4-6 6-4 [6-10]. cry

A bit like three cheers for the Brits, you could say smile.gif - well worth it too, excellent results and much needed after the disaster in Kuwait! Meatball seems to have been rewarded with a nice R2 draw for his efforts too. smile.gif

Footnote: Assuming I haven't messed up the YTD columns on the GB top 25 table, that's Feaver's first ranking point of 2009!

Stunning day for all four of them in Romania, especially Willis's result, and all of them seem to have a pretty good chance of reaching the last eight here.

Youguv survey- suggests romania is one of the most dire and low aspiring places to live-stat not my opinion. even bosnia ranks hire since 2007.

Oh dear, they really are ashamed - I didn't even award him his point last week (on the table, I mean), don't think I've ever done that before! I do compare the ranking points with the ATP list each week though, so I'd have corrected it once I looked into why next Monday's rankings didn't agree.

Anyway, after 0 points in 18 weeks, 2 in two weeks seems like quite an improvement!
