View Full Version : ROGERS CUP, TORONTO 23rd-31 July 2016 DOUBLES
Jamie and Bruno are the no 2 seeds in this event. There are no other Brits in the draw
Nick Kyrgios unrecognisable from last night. He and Jack Sock have giggled themselves to victory over Muller and Paire. Maybe Nick should just stick to doubles as he clearly loves being part of a team as was also shown during the IPTL.

Where it means nothing! I watched some of that match and I have rarely seen a player volley as poorly as Kyrgios did! Shapovalov looks like he will be amazing once he fills out a bit. Was already pretty impressive. He looked the more likely Slam winner.
Jamie Murray and Bruno Soares are the no2 seeds. a bye in first round, so first match will be versus Tomic and Troicki
ooops, i seem to be makng a right mess of eerything
there already is a thread for this tournament, started by jane days ago
jamie and bruno will play Tomic plus Troicki, Thursday perhaps?
Jamie and Bruno due on court at 7.00pm (UK) this evening. All the very best of luck, guys :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
Tomic is having a busy day, he starts at 4pm against kevin Anderson
and Tomic has just lost in 3 sets, 2hours, he won the first set but lost the next two
First set to Jamie and Bruno :yahoo::yahoo:
Jamie and Bruno win 6-3, 6-2 - well done guys :yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:

Wow there's NO people there at all. Where is everyone?
Loving Jamie's Union Jack wristband!
Jamie and Bruno get the win - well done guys :dance::dance::bravo:
yay, JB won, mb early on in the tb, then another, so won 7-6(4)
After making no impression on Klaasen/Rams serve in the first two sets they finally get a BP which is a SP to win the second set. Fine margins but they ran away with the MTB.
Dumusois clearly still has "no respect" for the Murrays, penalising Jamie a first serve in the MTB. :rolleyes:
Was watching - I was afeared after the first set, but Jamie has learned from baby brother how the stress the audience out before waking up. Well done to them both.
thanks for the match report, on Sky or red button on??

I was worried too, Teresa, when they didn't seem to be showing any signs of breaking their opponents serve but, thankfully, they came good in the end. Cream always rises to the top!

Certainly was tough and felt edgy , however Jamie/Bruno rose to the challenge and found a way- well done!:clap::clap:
Their match against Nestor and Pospisil is "not before 10.50pm" (UK) this evening. All the very best of luck, guys :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
Does anyone know if Sky is showing the doubles?

Looks like it. The Sky guide has the doubles before Djokovic and Monfils.

Keep the updates coming folks, can't find a stream

Pity Jamie/Bruno down break and whilst rain frustrating hopefully delay will help!
Sky showing last year's final - Andy v Djokovic
Great to watch again with an Andy win!!!
Can you believe it, moving JB to an un-televised court...shocking, disappointing :sad:

Sky are saying that when play resumes doubles will be moved to Grandstand and there's no camera on that court-so annoying!
When play resumes the doubles final will be moved to the Grandstand court so as not to interfere with the scheduling of the singles final. Unfortunately there are no cameras on the Grandstand court :grrr:

That's naughty of the organisers. Obviously they must want Djokovic-Nishikori on at the scheduled time but very disappointing

Absolutely ridiculous that this is not a televised court. 21st century technology. Words fail me and Sky and tournament organisers have failed so many tennis fans.
You are so right Maureen, I am really annoyed, we don't see enough of doubles as it is, have tweeted @SkySportsTennis...lol!
There were several televised courts at the beginning of the tournament - I would guess that they have already removed them not expecting to use the court again.
Players are warming up according to the Rogers Cup web site!
Score now 3-5 - come on Jamie and Bruno
JB lost the first set 4-6........COME ONNNN!!

Astounding!
seems to have got going again, dodig/melo won first set 6-4, JB serving first set 2

Jamie/Bruno up 2-1 on serve in 2nd, hopefully they can turn it around!

31-07-2016, 20:17
Seriously?! No cameras? Utterly ridiculous. Just shows once again how they seem to look on doubles as a second class sport :grrr:
ugh, df MUR, so they are now receiving at 2-3 down
JAMES4578
31-07-2016, 20:19
Unfortunately Jamie broken and 3-2 to Dodig/Melo, come on!
Come on guys! Time is running out.
OK, now or never, JB serving at 3-5
held serve, Dodig Melo at 5-4
JAMES4578
31-07-2016, 20:30
5-4 to Dodig/Melo,just hope there's an opening here!
ugh, JB lost 4-6, 4-6, disappointing
No...not to be...just weren't there...shame!!!:sad:

Save 2 mps but not the 3rd and going down 6-4,6-4 somewhat disappointing. However credit for reaching final and hopefully another tournament win soon.
Really bad luck, guys :crying::crying:
The stats don't make great reading, no BPs created and only 8 points won against the Dodig/Melo serve. Still a share of $118,640 isn't bad. ;)
Shame. Didn't realise Jamie hadn't won a Masters 1000. Onwards to Rio.
From what I saw, Melo and Dodig were playing a blinder. No shame to lose to a pair playing that well.
That is really disappointing. Jamie and Bruno seem to have lost their way a bit since winning in Oz ............... and Djoko is now a set and a break up against Kei - neither of the results I was hoping for.

Nor me. Apart from odd ones like Wimbledon, the only person who seems to have any chance of getting near Djokovic is Mr M.
I heard Jamie and Bruno had lost, earlier this morning. Very disappointing news, as they're better than Dodig and Melo.

Still not playing at their best. Seemed to have gone flat after winning the GS.
