Jim'n'Jon under way in Casablanca and they've stormed* to a 2-0 start against the Spaniards.

*tongue firmly in cheek here.

It didn't last. Ramos/Montanes have just broken back and they're serving at *2-3 and back on serve.

First set to Montanes/Ramos 7'6(3).

Kicked off the 2nd set with an immediate break of Montanes serve; held and then broke Ramos. Now they're 4-0 up. Montanes hold to love = 1-4*.

Marray/Murray take the 2nd set 6'2. CTB to come.

For the record, Brown & Hanley took out the top seeds, Cermak & Polasek, by 7-6(3) 6-3 today...

Wish Jamie could settle, I don't get why he just can't get on with one partner.

Presumably because they realise after a few tourneys how limited a player he is.
