Is the final going to be streamed? The semi wasn't on Prime or TennisTV.

[Sallydaisy]

Is the final going to be streamed? The semi wasn't on Prime or TennisTV.
Apparently not.
:sad:

You'd think as it was a Final they'd show it but it'll have to be livescores!

[exislander]

Apparently not.
:sad:

You'd think as it was a Final they'd show it but it'll have to be livescores!

Unless you have bet365 which is showing it. It is only a 250 tournament - not all doubles are shown.

[Sallydaisy]

Joe serving for the first set with a break at *5-4.
Now *0-30, 0-40

[exislander]

A break each and it is 5-5

[Hawkeye]

The Brits take the first set on the tie break, 7-2.

[Sallydaisy]

Joe serving for the first set with a break at *5-4.
Now *0-30, 0-40
OK then, just throw in a tie-break and win the set the hard way!
:doh:

:lol:

[Hawkeye]

Looking like an MTB to settle this as Peers/Polasek lead 5-3* in the second set.

[Sallydaisy]

MTB to decide it.

Brits *4-2 with a break

[Sallydaisy]

Brits serving *5-4 now
*7-4

Yay!!!

Well done Joe and Neal.

Both Skupskis with wins today.

Great rally to reach match point which they take!
