I assume you rushed and forgot to add Ken and Neal's opponents.

Not deliberately, no.  In fact, I distinctly remember typing out all the relevant details, but I cannot for the life of me explain how they came to be missing! confuse

Some good, some (Murray/Peers v the Bs; Skupskis v Matkowski/Zimonjic) much less so. Hope that all play to their best ability ... and who knows?

 I think the Skupski 's might have won the Surbiton final.

They did indeed, Phil, & the team they beat was only half-Brazilian, the other half being Kiwi!  wink

It's really good to see Marray and Nielsen back together. Let's hope lightening can strike twice.

Really does feel like the luck of the draw has gone against the in form Brits! Was hoping for better for the Skupskis.

R1:  (WC) Jonny Marray & Freddie Nielsen (DEN) CR 309 (64+245) defeated (Q) Fabrice Martin & Purav Raja (FRA/IND) CR 214 (106+108) by 6-1 6-4 4-6 7-6(7)   biggrin

A happy reunion so far...   That said, it could've been over in three, had they not surrendered their initial break!  They served 15 double faults to their opponents' three!
