Baltacha/Elliott vs. (7) Vesnina/Azarenka Rae/South vs. Bondarenko/Bondarenko Cavaday/O'Brien vs. Koryytseva/Poutchek Curtis/Smith vs. Stoop/Robson (likely to be Kuzzy and Mauresmo in round two) Borwell/Keothavong vs. (3) Stosur/Stubbs (so the best team we have will probably fall in round one)
Cavaday/O'Brien - 4th on court 3 Borwell/Keothavong - 1st on court 5 Rae/South - 3rd on court 5 Curtis/Smith vs. Robson/Stoop - TBA after 5pm - guess they are hoping for a show court for this then.
Unfortunate draw for our best team in terms of ranking. It would have been really beneficial for both of them to get weaker opposition and a win. Oh well at least they weren't completely annihilated and there's always the mixed.
