View Full Version : Queen's 19th-25th June 2017 - Doubles
Double's entry list as of the 5th June so there have been several withdrawals since. No sign of Andy's name although he hasn't played doubles at Queens since 2015 and it was 2011 before that. Given the prospect of a tough first round draw, it may be worthwhile getting his feet wet before but it would mean playing on Monday as his first round single's match is on Tuesday.

No doubles for Andy. Pure speculation but in a recent twitter Q&A, Nick Kyrgios said he'd asked Andy repeatedly to play doubles with him and I wonder if he was contemplating it here but stepped aside to let Inglot play (with Nick) via a wild card.

One point from winning the second set, for Jamie and Bruno, and it starts to rain.

On SundayPlay starts at 2pmThe conclusion of the doubles semi-final will follow the singles final after suitable rest.
Not fair on Jamie and Bruno.
I suppose they have to let Cilic play his singles first. Maybe scheduling is one of the reasons why none of the big boys play singles and doubles any more.

Or three times with them finishing the doubles! Busy day for him!
I can't believe that the Beeb isn't showing the doubles. Is it on anywhere?

Eurosport said it would be doubles after the Lopez interview,hopefully showing end of semi and final.
wonder why the dubs semi wasn't scheduled for this morning?
I agree, harriet. I vaguely remember, Andy (Murray) couldn't finish his semi final one year and came back the next morning and won it and then won the final.
i'm watching on eurosport player, watching jamie's strenuous warm up exercises

What happens now? Do they have a rest and go straight into the doubles final now?

Got a bit tight there but Jamie/Bruno hold on for the win and into the final,well done!:cheer::cheer:
They are on Eurosport 1 now.
Best of luck, guys :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
Inverdale talking about Eastbourne. If he had bothered to look at tomorrow's line up, he would have found no Djokovic tomorrow. Instead, all the single Brits are playing.
JB serving first, easy hold, bruno smashing sstuff at net
Had to mute the doubles on the BBC website. #theinverdaleeffect
He does do a lot of waffling.
1 - 3. Still expecting Jamie and Bruno to win this.
kitkat, off a DD, serving at 3-1
they stick the break, bruno very sharp at the net, benny/vaseline at 1-4
easy hold for 5-2, this is the best game to break now, serve first in set 2 etc, RV serving
First set to Jamie and Bruno :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Jamie and Bruno win the first set 6 - 2.
lovetennis
25-06-2017, 17:40
:bravo::bravo:
another DD, first set won 6-2 - long way round tho, had BRV at 0-40
anyway, JB serve first in set 2
wonder why the dubs semi wasn't scheduled for this morning?
I think it's because Cilic was playing the singles final and they had to let him play the singles first.
dodgy hold, another DD gets them home
"they look untouchable on serve" - will these commentators never learn? where's the 'tears hair' emoji?
c'mon jamie, df - 30 all, 40-30, game
It's nice to see Kim there supporting Jamie. Is Jamie's wife there? I haven't spotted her yet.
I'm surprised that James K is umpiring given that there is a Brit on the court.
Weird serve by Benneteau. Now, 3 - 3.

Don't think there's a requirement to have neutral umpires on the tour, only in DC when players are representing their country rather than themselves

I agree absolutely. Doubles is a fantastic spectator sport - especially when it is played at this level. It is such a shame that they don't show more doubles on TV - I'm sure people would get into it more if they had a chance to see it.

Thanks - I didn't know that. I think they probably do try to have a neutral umpire usually though - especially in singles.

Such a Commanding performance from Jamie/Bruno and Benny/Roger V could never get close,great to see Jamie finally get the Queen's title-fabulous for Murray/Soares! :clap::clap::clap:
Jamie and Bruno win and loved the little joke with Bruno, during the interviews.
That was an easy match to watch as it never looked as if Jamie and Bruno were going to lose! They played really well and I am so so thrilled for them! As Benneteau said, it's great that one Murray was a winner here this week! :clap::clap::bravo:

Very authorative win - pleased to see much better form and a rest tournament to win.
like it, RV "nice that one murray won a tournament here this week, it's a tradition"
Well done RV!!!
Great to see J & B win so comfortably. Despite the apparent disadvantage of not finishing their match last night, the short, sharp win today was a positive and excellent warm up for the final, whereas B & R-V hadn't played for days.
That is certainly true but it could have been very different if they hadn't managed to win the semi!
Well done Jamie and Bruno! They made it look quite easy!! :)
