So there you go. There is obviously a disconnect between what players were told in advance and what actually happens in practice, which sounds positive.

My understanding is that Harri was told Louis can't help him 1:1 with things he's struggling with in his own game, because of the David Cup issue. I've never seen any suggestion that Louis had been told not to help them as a pair. So I'm not sure there is any disconnect?

Max and Jordan win the US Open Doubles Championship biggrin

Nice of them to 'let' out Henry (and Harri) have the win on home soil - glad that the gods have now smiled on them smile
