I seem to remember it was John-Patrick that Jamie played with at his Murray trophy doubles up in Glasgow, hopefully their friendship doesn't get in the way of him getting to the final.

 Worth noting that Sharma and Smith where finalists in the AO Mixed Doubles last year, so not to be sniffed at despite their rankings in doubles. In mixed, they will clearly be a decent match up for Jamie and Beth when they play on Friday. Presumably this could be a Rod Laver Court late match, with the Aussie element in it.

Jamie and the other mixed semis are on Rod Laver tomorrow ahead of the second mens singles semi.

So....

Wednesday - you get mens doubles semi involving an Aussie pair, two ladies semis (incl an Aussie) and then Fed v Djoko. Pretty good!

Thursday - same price I guess? - two mixed semis and then Thiem v Zverev.

Discuss - who got the better deal there?!

Day and evening sessions will have been seperate tickets today (and every day actually). At a guess the day session tomorrow will be open to grounds pass and evening will be ticketed, so the evening sessions are exactly the same with one men's match each. Can't compare day as I doubt it's ticketed tomorrow.

The title here means that Jamie would have the most grand slam titles in the open era (currently tied with Wade).

Not looking so sharp today. Jamie lost his opening serve, and it's been on serve since. They need to pick up their game quickly.
