Good to see Jamie (and Michael) doing well this week.

While it would be lovely for all the GB doubles guys to all being doing well every week, it's good that we always seem to have at least one pair, if not two, going deep most weeks out of our wealth of talent.

From the BBC:

Jakub Mensik, who beat Andy Murray in the second round, produced an even greater upset by knocking out world number five Andrey Rublev 6-4 7-6 (8-6) in the Qatar Open quarter-finals


And, not content with that win, he went on to beat "La Monf" (WC) in three sets (6-4 1-6 6-3) to reach the final, where he'll play Khachanov (2).

 Massive week for the lad. Be interesting to see how his season evolves.

Mensik top of the Next Gen Race, at least for now. Fonseca the other young one causing people to look.

Mens Tennis future looking bright.

 Definitely puts Andy's loss in a different light! Mensik's clearly playing very well this week. As you say, interesting to see how well he sustains it over a few months.
