Sheeesh - nasty draws for the Brits!
Fleming/Hutchins meet Fish/Knowles in R1.
Jamie Murray partners Jurgen Melzer (the Jimjams) and play Bopanna/Bhupathi in R1.

Not great for Jamie and Jurgen, but think they've got a chance if they play at their top level. Problem is that they're a new team, where as Rohan and Mahesh are becoming more established as a team.
Optimistic about Colin and Ross. Mardy been on a shocking streak, though Mark still a great dubs player. I'm optimistic they can put a good run together ahead of DC.

For a millisecond there I misread that as Mork and Mindy.
first set to Flemchins by 6-1 :cheer:
second set is closer - on serve at *2-3

They won the first very easily 6-1,on serve thus far in the 2nd at 2-3.
yes - I started to put stuff here then realised that it was also being discussed in the doubles thread!
very confused there for a few seconds :confused: - then I realised the posts had been moved!
argh Flemchins had 3 break points there but lost the game - now *5-6

Hutchins and Fleming 6-1- 6-6 and MP at 6-5 in TB Yeah! They take it 7-5 so 6-1 7-6 :)
They win!! 6-1 7-6(5) :yahoo::yahoo:
Well done Flemchins! :cheer: :cheer:

A tight 2nd set and some bps went begging but they still got there, well done!
Hutchins and Fleming 6-1- 6-6 and MP at 6-5 in TB Yeah! They take it 7-5 so 6-1 7-6 :)
Great win for the pair! Felt a little sorry for them when they drew Andy/Jamie last tournament, they are improving and climbing up the rankings, they need as many ranking points they can get -- We want to see them qualify for London, would be such an achievement for the pair!
Also on another note, Isner a set down against Davy... :(
Jamie is second on court 6 tomorrow (http://www.atpworldtour.com/Scores/schedule.aspx?EventId=403&Year=2012&Seq=6), following another doubles match, so probably start approx 4.30pm

Some of us had a bit of a dilema when they faced Jamie/Andy even if we werew guaranteed a Brits going through. obviously Colin/Ross are a strong partnership who can make the year end championships. Isner fighting back and nowe serving for the 2nd at 5-3, would rather he went through!
Well done Ross and Colin - good win over Fish and Knowles.

Yeah, well hopefully they pair can makeup for their early loss last time around and get deep into this tournament! Either Baggy/Querry or Paes/Stepanek next up... would prefer Baggy/Querry for that one! Isner takes the 2nd set! :yahoo:

Yeah think I feel the same! Early stages of 3rd could be crucial with Isner and Davy.
The names are up on livescore for Jamie's match now!
Best of luck, Jamie:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::)
serving at 4-5, first set, 0-30, 15-30, 30 all, ace MUR, 5-5, bhupathi now
JAMES4578
24-03-2012, 17:15

Sallydaisy
24-03-2012, 17:37
Love hold for Jamie with an Ace on game point for 2-4.
It's only one break of serve; they could get back into it ....... um, maybe?
held to love, with an ACE, bb now at 4-2
JAMES4578
24-03-2012, 17:38
Chances fading now though we knew it would in all likelihood be tough!
melzer now at 2-5, after an ACE boopatty, must hold here!!!
held!, so the big boppa now at 5-3
another DD,drat, lost 7-5, 6-3
JAMES4578
24-03-2012, 17:48
Disappointing, it went away from them at the end of the first set.
RoastLamb
24-03-2012, 17:49

Well done, though wish you'd been wrong! Unfortunately I missed the FTM!
Well, the result was to be expected - most of us picked the others in FTM. They were unlucky to be drawn against such a good team. :sad:

BIG match for Flembo and Rosco today against the YTD Number 1 team Paes and Stepanek
Vamos Flemchins! :swingin: :swingin: :swingin:

Flemchins up on livescore now .....
Sallydaisy
26-03-2012, 23:50
Flemchins had a point for a break at 2-1*, 40-30 but PaeStep held on for 2-2.
lankster2003
27-03-2012, 00:23
Flemchins lose 1st set 6-4 after having a 0/7 BP conversion rate. Won exactly 50% of points so very tight
lankster2003
27-03-2012, 00:59
Boys go down 6-4, 6-3. They did well considering they were playing the current YTD World Number 1's. A few days rest for them now before DC prep starts
:crying: :crying: :crying:

A good effort, but pity Colin/Ross couldn't take more of the chances.

Shame for Flemchins, looks as though it was a close match, improving all the time. Well done Guys
Ah pity, but very good opponents. Hopefully they can now prepare for the DC.
