And we have the top seed - & just look who's on the other side of the net in the first round!

R1:  (1) Chan Hao-Ching (TPE) & Jamie Murray CR 10 (7+3) vs Daria Gavrilova & John Peers (AUS/AUS) CR 228 (216+12)  rolleyes.gif

R1:  Alizé Cornet & Jonathan Eysseric (FRA/FRA) CR 384 (192+192) vs Jo Konta & Daniel Nestor (CAN) CR 158 (144+14)

Jo could've done worse... wink

How so?  Where else would it go?  I always start Grand Slam mixed doubles threads in this forum & if the clue was in the article, I wasn't allowed access to it! confuse

Hear, hear. This has also thrown up an oddity in the seedings. If you look at the draw, Mirza and Dodig, whom they played in the finals were seeded second. Hingis and Paes were unseeded. Presumably that's because Paes' doubles ranking is currently fairly low. But given that the pairing has won four of the last six Grand Slams,  it begs the question ...
