JBG has a doubles wild card again - http://www.atpworldtour.com/posting/2013/6949/mdd.pdf


Ritz* qualified for the main draw and has a highly winnable first round match.





* How about a doubles pairing of Ritz and Hilton (Mark)?

 too much rivalry.

The backlog became too much and they ended up cancelling the doubles!  Surely in such cases they distribute the cash equally and the organisers don't get to keep it?



But why on earth am I posting regularly about Futures doubles?

(NB for the linguists, this has cause much room for plays on words in France because 'pas de bol' means 'unlucky' i.e. 'il n'a vraiment pas de bol' means 'he's always really unlucky'

   That thought had crossed my mind, but I had no handy hook on which to hang a post!  Don't forget ras le bol, as in j'en ai ras le bol ("I'm fed up to the back teeth with it"), too, or, as a (masculine non) & therefore ohyphenated, meaning "dissatisfaction" or "discontent".     I once had two coffee bols, purchased in a Paris hypermarket many moons ago, bearing the legends "ras le bol" & "pas de bol" (both apposite & witty, I thought, when I bought them).  Only "pas de bol" survives & the glaze on that has cracked so it won't be with me for much longer.
