Second set not so straightforward.  Cilic & Zovko stayed with them every step of the way, especially in the tie-break, but they got there in the end, by 9-7! biggrin 

French opponents in the final, either Julien Benneteau & JWT or those wild old campaigners, Arnaud Clément & Nicolas Mahut.

Couldn't see UK coverage, but Dutch coverage (http://www.nusport.nl/tennis/2450486/haase-en-skupski-finalisten-in-marseille.html) seems to refer to them as "the new Dutch/British duo"  Does anyone know if this is a temporary duo? Or are they thinking of playing together more frequently?

Well, well well:

Final:  Robin Haase (NED) & Ken Skupski vs Julien Benneteau & JWT (FRA/FRA)

Benneteau & JWT have just seen off Clément & Mahut by 3 & 4! disbelief
