1 point in it, 87 to 86. Fine margins. Still, they share 175k USD so nice work, with jamie getting a share of another 78k or 160k in mixed, hes had a very nice fortnight.

Let's hope they can have a great autumn run now

Pretty amazing that they got the title at the US Open AND Wimbly.

I don't really follow doubles much but it seems to me that, unlike singles, it's pretty rare to get the same team winning Grand Slam titles in the same year????

It's happened 7 of the past 11 years and 19 of the past 30. smile

Yes. Bryan/Bryan. Bryan/Sock, Murray/Soares, Bjorkman/Woodbridge, Woodbridge/Woodford have all done it this century. RG is the hardest one to pair up of course.

Joe and rajeev exit New York in 8th place in race so well placed for o2.

The "lowdown" from the very beginning (complete up this year's USO).

But with Australian Open champions Herbert & Mahut below them they need to finish in the top 7 to qualify.
