Lee Childs did well to get Wayne Black to play with him, the veteran Zimbabwean is a former top 10 doubles player. However, unfortunately they were drawn against two of the biggest leftie servers in tennis, on grass that match wouldn't have been much fun.

Auckland and Delgado were also unlucky with their draw. Stephen Huss won the Wimbledon doubles title with Wesley Moodie last year, beating the Bryans in the final. He seems to save his best for grass as after that amazing run he's done very little apart from reaching the ATP Basel final.

Amazing win for Lee and Marray, Haggard and Parrott are both top 50 doubles players. By the way, Marray is our no 2 doubles player after Auckland. Like Auckland, he needs to find a permanent partner. A good run here would put him well on the way to cracking the top 150 [he's currently in the 170s].
