Weeks 40 & 41 - ATP Masters 1000 - BNP Paribas Open, Indian Wells, CA, USA (hard) - doubles


Enough British interest to justify a separate thread, I think:

L32:  Daniel Evans & Neal Skupski CR 88 (66+22) vs (WC) John Isner & Jack Sock (USA/USA) CR 377 (208+169)

L32:  (6) Jamie Murray & Bruno Soares (BRA) CR 29 (20+9) vs Jan-Lennard Struff & Alexander Zverev (GER/GER) CR 209 (71+138)

L32:  Cameron Norrie & Luke Saville (AUS) CR 154 (128+26) vs (2) Rajeev Ram (USA) & Joe Salisbury CR 7 (4+3)  hmm

The top seeds are Mektic & Pavic.

L32:  (2) Rajeev Ram (USA) & Joe Salisbury CR 7 (4+3)  beat Cam Norrie & Luke Saville (AUS) CR 154 (128+26) by  4-6 6-3 [10-8]

Tight one and Cam & Luke were *5-3 up in the MTB just before they chucked in the first of two DFs.

 The other Brits above, Dan and Neal and Jamie , all go this evening. Two very tough draws. Courts playing a lot slower than US Open, I think that may favour Dan and Neal but not Jamie and Bruno. Hopefully one of them will get a win, not expecting both.

As feared, Jamie and Bruno struggling a set and 4-2 down to the German pair. Not looking likely

Just looking at the ATP Finals Doubles Race, Jamie and Brunos early loss isnt really a big blow, in so much as pretty much everyone else lost to!

live-tennis.eu/en/atp-doubles-race

Krawiecz and Tecau look like they are securing their place. But Jamie and Bruno look secure in 8th whatever happens this week and it is hard to imagine that Gille and Vliegen or Middelkoop and Arevalo will win this week to close the gap substantially behind Jamie and Bruno

Jamie and Bruno arent in Moscow or Antwerp, presumably playing Vienna and Paris to secure their place if they can. Most of the other pairs are in Moscow or Antwerp so it could tighten up , of course
