The 10th seeds are the first to engineer a breakpoint over deuce in the 4th game - taken

The tenth seeds consolidate the break: *1-4 in the first set. cry

The tenth seeds get a second break to increase their advantage & will serve for the first set: 1-5*. cry

Second service game of the set again does for Dom & Treat

1-6 1-2*

Stircrazy · Tennis legend

The boys had a couple of points to break back in the fourth game, but couldn't convert either of them: *1-3 in the second. The match is slowly slipping away from them. hmm

No good:

R3: Treat Conrad Huey (PHI) & Dominic Inglot lost to (10) Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi & Jean-Julien Rojer (PAK/NED) by 1 & 4

They saved (I think) five match points in the final game & were unable to convert their solitary break point.

Julia Carrot · All-time great

Huge fight back at 5 - 4 . Match points came and went. At least one break point not taken. But in the end went down 4 - 6 in the 2nd
