With 3 of the 4 seeds involving British players this has the potential for a very good week.

Watched this on a live stream. Neither Jonny or Colin were particularly good and the 6-1 second set win was largely down to some very poor play from the Germans.

thanks RJA, I hope that Johnny's Wimby win wasn't a Rosol.

 I wouldn't get too concerned about one result. It is hardly unusual for a scratch pairing to play poorly and lets face it, outside of Grand Slams and Davis Cup doubles matches tend to be so short that you can't read too much into individual results.

 

Our other players here don't seem to be playing until Wednesday at the earliest.
