Apart from one of his services games in third set which was poor, Nielsen really is a class doubles player So good to see these 2 guys together playing so well together again, think they could definitely go deep again, fingers firmly crossed!
... but eventually took the second by 7-5 (they served for it at 5-3) to level the match.
last time I checked the lads were down a break, but they now have 3MPs!!
edit - oops I forgot it was best of 5
but they win the 3rd set!!!
took the 3rd by same score 7-5.
