Hutch partners Andy here and they have drawn Flake and A-Rod in the first round, and if they get to the second round are likely to face the top seeds Nestor/Zimonjic.

Not so great for Ross though, since was defending 180 points ( QF place ) from last year.
Defending another 180 points in Miami, but back with Kerr for that.
I don't know if Hutchins / Kerr thought they would need higher ranked partners to get in to IW ( or Andy just told Ross he fancied playing some doubles ) but in the end it does look as if they would have got in OK.

Don't get me wrong, and I was just joking a bit about Andy requesting Ross to come play doubles.
It was no doubt a mutual agreement, partly ( well maybe largely ) based on the fact that at one stage a Hutchins / Kerr partnership would have been quite far down the alternates list and looking like would miss out on entry.
