J&J fared rather better than a certain other J & his new Swiss mate - eventually:
R1: Treat Conrad Huey & Frank Moser (PHI/GER) lost to (4) Jamie Delgado & Jonny Marray by 6-4 6-7(5) [10-12]!
Bogomolov & Huta Galung or Junaid & Marx in the QF. Interestingly, since it afffects the boys' half of the draw, the Aussie scratch pairing of Paul Hanley & Jordan Kerr took out the second seeds, Cerretani & Shamasdin, by 3 & 4 today.
SF: (4) Jamie Delgado & Jonny Marray vs (WC) Pierre-Hugues Herbert & Nicolas Renavand (FRA/FRA)
The French WCs are also not to be underestimated: they despatched Paul Hanley & Jordan Kerr in three in their QF (10-8 in the MTB) who themselves had dumped out the second seeds in straight sets...

My prayers are clearly working at the moment: J&J have taken the first set by 6-3.
Wow! I thought for a moment that 'Im Upstairs had stopped listening, as the boys were on the verge of dropping the second set by the same score as they won the first, but they turned it round completely & took it by 7-5 - & with it, of course, the match!
