Oh, swear word.

So close.  Obviously a highly competitive performance but I am as gutted as Ken and Neal will be with the result.

 That is a good win for Luke and his partner though, into the semis. 

We have Luke + and Jamie and Joe in the top 8 in the Race , albeit only a few days into the season!

SF:  Frederik Nielsen & Tim Pütz (DEN/GER) CR 107 (45+62) vs Luke Bambridge & Santiago González (MEX) CR 100 (51+49)

On the face of it, an even contest, but Freddie & Tim (with a combined age of 69 (36+32) put out Pavic & Soares, the top seeds, in three sets in their QF...

Luke and partner have beaten two solid looking pairs in raonic/berankis and chardy/martin. Think it's a 50 50 match but fancy Luke and Gonzalez to win.

 Sadly a first set drubbing to Luke and partner, 6-2

 Darn, but they should be 2nd in the first weeks race, so a good start for Luke, onwards and upwards. Sadly only a 2 place ranking rise to 49 this week for him at best.
