Shame about the non GB final. Both players have pedigree. No shame in losing to them, even in such a fashion, on clay.

Edit due to being a daftie.

Except for that, yes, oops. But the sentiment is the same. Will go and edit.

Ken and Neal well underway but struggling, down 4-6 and 0-3 in the second set (from LS not watching live).

Final: (2) Ivan Dodig & Edouard Roger-Vasselin (CRO/FRA) CR 59 (33+26) defeated (3) Ken Skupski & Neal Skupski CR 76 (49+27) by 4 & 3 cry

0 out of, I think, eight break points converted. hmm

Pity.

Still this coming Monday ...

Neal will be WR 27, equal to his CH.
Luke will be WR 41, a new CH by one place.
Jonny will be WR 44, equal to his CH.
Ken will be WR 45, one place off his CH at a youthful 36 yo.
