Andy will be heading to the Far East in October and has indicated he'll be playing in Bangkok again to start his Asian swing. Maybe he'll repeat and go to Tokyo again before Shanghai.
Other early commitments come from Berdych, Gasquet, Raonic and Youzhny

Best of luck to Jamie and John:thumbup::thumbup:

[Sallydaisy]

Match started about 15minutes ago. It's all going with serve at 2-2 in the first set.
If you don't want the livescoreboard there's a slower version of matches in progress on the ATP site
http://www.atpworldtour.com/Scores/Scores-and-Stats.aspx?from=topnav

[Sallydaisy]

A tie-break for the first set after NO breaks of serve!!!
J's going first in this one ...

*1-0
1-1*
2-1* Yay!!!
*2-2 Rats!
*3-2 phew, long point that was ...
3-3*
3-4* still no breaks ... danger now for the J's, must hold their 2 serves.
*4-4
*5-4 good oh.
5-5* a break now would be good chaps!
5-6* and that's a set point to the others ...
*6-6 well held
*7-6 and that's a set point to Jamie and John!
8-6*

:dance:

First set to Murray/Peers 7'6(6)

[Jane]

Been out, but pleased to see that the boys got the first set. Going to watch now on Streamhunter and have some lunch

[Sallydaisy]

The lads are serving 2nd in the 2nd set, bit of a disadvantage methinks but hopefully they'll hold their own. Might put livescorehunter on and see if the stream is decent.

Wonder if Andy is watching from his hospital bed?
;)

[Sallydaisy]

Ouch, 3 break points went begging in that game. J's now serving *2-3.

[Sallydaisy]

But they break in game 7 and will be serving at *4-3.
:thumbup:

[Jane]

Jamie and John get the "W" in two sets 7-6, 6-4 - well done, guys:clap::clap::cheer::cheer:

[JAMES4578]

[supergran]

Well done Jamie and John!:yahoo::yahoo:

[patmoren]

Jamie and John taking the first set 7-6 after being 4-1 up, were 4-1 down in second but back on serve at 4-4. Up and down match.

[Jane]

Bangkok doubles Final - Sunday 29th Sept, 13.00 local time = 07.00 UK time.
Bit uncivilised on a Sunday morning ...
:hmm:

:cheer:

[Alis]

Fantastic!! :dance::dance::dance:

Congratulations to Jamie and John on their 6-3, 3-6. 10-6 win in Bangkok:clap::clap::clap::yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:

FANTASTIC

[patmoren]

Great win for Jamie and John. Well done guys.

[Joyce]

Gr8 news. Thrilled for Jamie & John! :bravo:

[Jennan]

So good, really really pleased for them:dance::dance:

[Sallydaisy]

:yahoo::yahoo::yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:

Great for them to notch up a 3rd title this year - especially since the first 2 were outdoor on clay.

They'll probably already be on a plane to Tokyo which is a 500 so even if they only make it past R1 they'll get 90 points but then they face the Bryans ...

It'll be touch and go if they get into Shanghai where they're 3rd Alts on the Entry List.
There are 6 OS places available so the 1st Alts (British player Dom Inglot with Treat Huey) will almost certainly get in. Fingers crossed for Jamie and John!
:peace:

[Linda]

Great win! :cheer:
