The tennis gods are clearly still not smiling on the Brits:  Hutch & "Jordanie" (= the French name for the country, "Jordan"! disbelief ) Kerr have drawn the second seeds, Nestor & Zemonjic, in the first round, while Col & Ken have, on the face of it, a slightly easier encounter agin Marco Chiudinelli & Christopher Kas (SUI/GER). We can but live in hope... pray.gif

Murray and Marray are first alternates and hoping for a withdrawal.

Ross 4th on Court 6 after two men's singles and a women's singles.

Jonny/Jamie play Greul/Luczak 3rd on Court 8, after a ladies and a women's
doubles.



So Ross is on a televised court. biggrin The BBC see should show it, I mean what's the alternative, Dementieva v Garrigues? Garrigues does not have the game to trouble the top players, so that will be one sided.

Anyone know who i said e-mail to tell them to show it? I could catch it on Eurosport Player on the internet, but not the same as watching it on TV.

More British good fortune, if only we could get some of it on the courts!

Delgado and Korolev replace Isner/Querrey and will play the French duo of Ascione/Recouderc

Is 6 the highest number of participants for a while?

In terms of todays Schedule

Ross last (4th) on Court 6
Murray/Marray 3rd on Court 8

Surely M&M will be delayed. Gruel just about to resume his match against Malisse. Even if Malisse finishes Gruel off in 3 sets, he won't have much time to rest between matches as the match before M&M is already underway.

It looks like Murray/Marray will be on at the same time as Murray vs Chela. Choices, choices!

Delgy wooooooooo!

Greul lost his singles in straights so M&M might start on time.

Did anyone know Ross was hoping to play mixed doubles with the top Russian Anastastia Pavlyuchenkova but didn't make the cut.
