 Doumbia has withdrawn so instead of the top seeds Marcus and Christian have got Alts.

I think Marcus and Harrison could be a strong pairing, interested to see how they get on this week!

Strictly speaking, Petros shouldn't be described as "The Younger", as he's the middle brother of three.  The youngest, Pavlos, also a tennis player, is 18, five years younger than Petros.

 Isn't that exactly how the middle brother should be described? Youngest, younger/ elder, eldest?

I saw a bit at the back end of the 2nd set and Bourgue was serving big. It was very difficult for Billy to get into the rallies.

I don't think so, no.  "Younger" is the comparative form of "young" & used to compare one of two things with another, with "the Younger" being used after someone's name to show that he (or, occasionally, she) is the younger of two people who have the same name, more often than not father & son, as opposed to brothers (an unlikely occurrence), e.g. William Pitt the Younger & William Pitt the Elder, Pieter Bruegel the Younger & Pieter Bruegel the Elder & Pliny the Younger & Pliny the Elder.  Add a third & you need the superlative, "youngest/eldest" of three people...

Mmm. So if the youngest of the three is The Youngest, and the oldest of the three is The Eldest, how is the middle one described? Tsitsipas The Middle(st)?
