Well done to Lloyd and Harri, tough opponents on clay I reckon. So good win

Joe and Rajeev are down 5-2, 2 breaks , in the opening set.

Definitely seem to be struggling as a pair right now...

 Something certainly isnt right and it isnt going well for them. 

Nonetheless, it isnt long since they won a slam, so not going to write it off yet, I am sure they will know what to do better than we will

I thought Arneodo/Weissborn played brilliantly, but Joe lost all 4 of his serves...I notice his serve action is quite truncated (has it always been?) - I believe he had some back trouble, didn't he? Perhaps this is a partial cause. However, they also have a habit of rushing the net early in every rally - which I understand, but if you have hard-hitting opponents, it can be very difficult to volley from that position. It's interesting that this isn't the approach Lloyd & Harri use, despite both pairs having input from Louis Cayer.

Lloyd and Harri are now on same live points at last
And equal 11th in rankings - a new high for Lloyd. Both could go well into the top 10 this week, or if not this week, then certainly soon.

Neal and Wes have a decent haul of points to defend next few weeks, if Joe and Rajeev can somehow pull it around they are actually in a position to get to the top again.

Austin Krajicek looks like a potential contender for the top as well.

Could be interesting few weeks and it would be nice to see all our doubles guys firing before the grass.

There seems to be no stopping the WCs at the moment:

QF:  (WC) Romain Arneodo & Sam Weissborn (MON/AUT) CR 194 (89+105) defeated (6) Lloyd Glasspool & Harri Heliövaara (FIN) CR 22 (11+11) by 6-2 7-6(3)  disbelief

Good to see a local player doing well, I guess!! But shame and another British doubles star hits the dust this week.

Over to Neal next
