A random doubles fact:

Men under 25 in doubles top 100 = 1 (Hijikata)
Men over 35 in doubles top 100 = 33

It's also remarkable that the two Aus Open doubles finalist pairs have between them only won 2 Tour matches since that match.

Neal in action today, around 1240 pm our time. Joe must start tomorrow. Joe losing 1000 points this week so Neal and Wes stretching away at top of doubles ranks.

How did Neal and Wes win that?
Didn't return very well, outplayed on the longer rallies and still managed to come back from a long way back in the MTB
