Well done Dom and Franko beating Lindstedt and Ram in straight sets. We have a win....

Finally!  Again, for the record:

L64:  (16) Dominic Inglot & Franko Skugor (CRO) CR 66 (27+39) defeated Robert Lindstedt & Rajeev Ram (SWE/USA) CR 77 (52+35) by 6-4 7-6(9)  smile

That said, Naomi B & her US playing partner, Danielle Collins, also won their first round match in straight sets - & against the 16th seeds, to boot.  biggrin

 

L64:  (4) Jamie Murray & Bruno Soares (BRA) CR 15 (7+8) defeated Guido Pella & Albert Ramos (ARG/ESP) CR 438 (158+280) by 2 & 3

No revenge for Cam in the doubles, however:

L64: Dusan Lajovic & Stefanos Tsitsipas (SRB/GRE) CR 1429 (396+1033) defeated Cameron Norrie & Diego Schwartzman (ARG) CR 304 (205+99) by 3-6 6-4 6-1  bleh

******

L32:  (16) Dominic Inglot & Franko Skugor (CRO) CR 66 (27+39) vs Dusan Lajovic & Stefanos Tsitsipas (SRB/GRE) CR 1429 (396+1033)

L32:   (4) Jamie Murray & Bruno Soares (BRA) CR 15 (7+8) vs Marcus Daniell & Wesley Koolhof (NZL/NED) CR 86 (44+42)

The top seeds, Marach WR 2 & Pavic WR 3, have lost to Mayer & Sousa in R1.

And now the defending champions and 6th seeds, Rojer & Tecau ( although not having a great year ), have lost to Albot & Jaziri, the Skupskis' alts conquerors.

Rojer & Tecau were in Jamie & Bruno's quarter, Marach & Pavic in their half. Plenty tennis still to be played though before that possibly becomes at all relevant and plenty good pairs remain.

Jamie and Bruno are playing well (although I'm not watching it because my stream doesn't want me to) and are up 6-3, 3-1*

Peers and Kontinen are out.

Excellent effort from Franko and Dom. That next rounds going to be really tough though.

 

Apologies for the lack of apostrophes by the way. I put them in but they disappear when I submit the post. Must be driving grammar fans crazy. (Maybe its because I post on an iPad?).

Albot & Jaziri follow up beating the Skupskis and then Rojer & Tecau by beating the Harrisons to reach the QF. They will be Jamie & Bruno's QF opponents if the boys can overcome Haase & Middelkoop in the L16.

Jamie & Bruno are 2nd on Grandstand. Dom & Franko vs M Bryan & Sock are not before 3.30 pm local at TBA.

More comfortable than the scoreline suggests - could easily have got another break in that second set.
