They will play Rajeev/Joe next!
Doubles going really well!!
Shame they couldn't meet in the final.
Wasn't this Jamie match meant to be on Prime? It disappered :sad:
Yes, but there was a technical issue resulting in most not being able to watch it. However the replay is now up on Prime, and as there is no live tennis today as Cincy has been paused, this is a good chance to watch the match. Well played boys!

So when play resumes Men's Doubles semis Murray/Skupski v Ram/Salisbury and Carreno Bustas/De Minaur v Johnson/Krajicek. Seen Jamie/Neal fine myself.

Those two dubs matches featuring our Brits were fantastic!!! I've said it before and I'll say it again, Joe Salisbury has got to be - hands down - the best doubles player at the moment.

Strong performance from Jamie/Neal , even though Ram/Salisbury may not have found their best form. After taking close first they gained in confidence, great stuff!:cheer::cheer:

Yeah I honestly didn't think they'd win but they did - in straights. Well done them! Hope they win tomorrow!

URGENT ALERT - SCHEDULE CHANGE
Doubles Final is 3.40pm on Prime Video
Marcus Buckland@marcus_buckland (https://twitter.com/marcus_buckland)39s (https://twitter.com/marcus_buckland/status/1299702302782230529)
Oh no! @naomiosaka (https://twitter.com/naomiosaka) has pulled out of the @CincyTennis (https://twitter.com/CincyTennis)final with a hamstring injury
It means we will start with the @jamie_murray (https://twitter.com/jamie_murray)@nealskupski (https://twitter.com/nealskupski) doubles final at 3.40 on @primevideosport (https://twitter.com/primevideosport)
I think Marcus Buckland has been misinformed, as Jamie's match has not started yet. I really don't see why it would be affected by Osaka's withdrawal as she was due to play on a different court. :thumbup:

I did put Prime on a bit earlier just in case but the stream only starting now.

3.40 pm is the time the main Prime channel starts with discussions etc and they showed the women's presentation before now switching to the doubles which would have started on the match channel on time.
Ouch!! Jamie and Neal lost the first set 2 - 6 :sad:
JAMES4578
29-08-2020, 15:42
Yes not going to plan so far but time to turn it around, come on Jamie/Neal!
2-0 in the second ....c'mon!!
JAMES4578
29-08-2020, 15:59
Looks like a match breaker, Jamie/Neal in command of 2nd at 4-0. Though now gave a bit away and lost one of the breaks 4-1.
All of the breaks gone now, 5-4*.
JAMES4578
29-08-2020, 16:19
Two doubles from Jamie as well, hopefully that will not be too costly but set in the balance and Careno Busta/De Minaur challenge again.

29-08-2020, 16:23
I can hardly watch - so sad to see J&N play like this :sofa: Come on guys!!

Nightmare :sad:
Broken again. Quite the choke going on.
Lets hope this rain break will turn things for Jamie and Neal

Turned into a bit of a disaster, know opposition returning well at times but 10 doubles for team and also poor errors. Players now being sent back due to conditions.

Machine drying court - maybe back on soon.
There are two right-handed guys having a hit on the court right now, but too far away for me to recognise them.
exislander
29-08-2020, 19:36
I think they are now going to finish under the roof.
Warming up under the roof. Come on Jamie and Neal :thumbup: :thumbup:
:crying::crying: So sad they lost, but well done getting so far

Got to 30-40 but unfortunately could not take advantage, Carreno Busta/De Minaur take title 6-2,7-5. Still do not know how Jamie/Neal threw away that lead in 2nd but still had some great peformances throughout week and can hopefully take confidence from that.
RosieBear
29-08-2020, 19:55
Desperately sad that Jamie and Neal couldn't do themselves justice today :sad: but hey ho, nerves get to even the best hence Federer isn't reigning Wimbledon champ. On to the open!

Jamie and Neal both served brilliantly in the earlier rounds but dropped off a bit tonight. Disappointing but a good run. Preparation for the Open next week.

Ugh double whammy of disappointment today. But great to see them - and Milos - get to the finals!
