Luke first up with his doubles tomorrow at 12.30 hrs UK time.

Kyle also plays tomorrow but is last (4th) match on so timing is harder to judge.

L16:  Luke Bambridge & Santiago González (MEX) CR 100 (51+49) defeated Ricardas Berankis & Milos Raonic (LTU/CAN) CR 741 (294+447) by 5-7 7-6(5) [10-5]

I thought they'd had it when they went 0-3* down in the second set!

Kyle's match about to start. I think it is live on "The Tennis Channel".

Not that I saw it, but looking at live scores it did feel like a match that could have gone either way.

Looks to have been fairly competitive, although Kyle did lose 11 of the last 15 ganes.

Both serves were broken rather frequently. Kyle broken in half his service games (7/14) as against 5/14.

 

Hopefully Kule will in time push back up the rankings in some alignment with the faith our 34 competition predictors have shown, on average predicting him to be end of season WR 32, the best of the Brits.

Watched the 1st set and thought Kyle played pretty well, but being broken 7 times in 14 games isn't going to make things easy.

Saw very little of the rest other than one very strange incident in the final game. Krajinovic was serving for the match at *5-3 15-0 but Kyle played a great point and won it with a backhand passing shot. But the damper on his racket sprung off and crossed the net and consequently he forfeited the point.
