The draw is not due to be released until Friday, but given that there should be at least one Brit in each of five of the 16 pairs, I think it deserves a separate thread. If Darts is to be believed, the following should be involved:
- Henry & Harri (to be seeded second behind Arévalo & Pavic),
- Julian & Lloyd (sixth),
- Joe & Neal (eighth),
- Jamie + Adam Pavlasek &
- last, but not least, Jack alongside Tomás Machác.
Indian Wells always more interesting with singles players playing doubles. Melo/Zverev have played well in the past, althoguh I don't think Zverev's great at the net. Draper/Machac match will be interesting.
Jack is up to doubles live ranked 206 as against his CH 247
360 points so far from 3 counters ( 270 from 2 counters with Machac, unbeaten in these 2 counters since they conceded a SF w/o in Tokyo last September ).
