R1: Casey Dellacqua (AUS) & Jamie Murray CR 47 (17+30) vs Elina Svitolina & Florin Mergea (UKR+ROU) CR 187 (151+36)
* Decent first-round draw for Jamie & Casey, but the chances are that they'll end up playing the top seeds, Sania Mirza & Bruno Soares, in the last 16...
R1: (4) Kristina Mladenovic & Daniel Nestor (FRA/CAN) CR 18 (13+5) vs Chan Yung-Jan (TPE) & Ross Hutchins CR 180 (32+148)
* Ross'll no doubt be sick of the sight of Nestor...
That's a terrific result to which to wake up! Didn't see it coming at all! What a pity there are no ranking points available for these matches. Rosco starting to recover his va-va-voom? I sincerely hope so.
Out of nowhere Peschke has to retire. Not sure why.
Possibly something to do with an earlier long (two hours & 14 minutes), hard R3 women's doubles match on the same court a short while before which she & Katarina Srebotnik, the fifth seeds, eventually won by 4-6 6-1 7-6(4)?
