Cam on today as well as all the doubles guys, Joe, Neal, Jamie.

I see Isner and Schwartzman are playing together and won their opener. Hilarious!

Doubles draw now showing Joe and Rajeev now playing Lloyd and Harri. Although I'm sure Lloyd posted a picture in London yesterday, probably a last minute flight out there to sign in.

According to this tweet they both flew in this morning when Harri realised they had a chance on getting in.

An extraordinarily good win for Lloyd and Harri, excellent story to go along with. Merits a few lines in the sports sections of the papers as well as the front page of the ATP website.  I so, so hope that they manage to back it up with a few more wins. I'm sure they need to dosh.

Great stuff from Lloyd & Harri. Bet they are glad they came!

This week Lloyd is due to drop the remaining 5 points in respect of a 2019 M15 title. 3 years later he has just been in a winning pair against the #1 ranked pair in the world in an ATP Masters.

So on changeovers I noticed one kit bag and a small bag. Turns out it looks like Lloyd grabbed a small bag threw a few things in and two rackets. Obviously not trusting hold luggage!
