Jamie should have his own match threads when he's not playing with Andy  . Tricky round for the first time pairing of Jamie and Becker but they could win they play to their potential. Benneteau (ranked 71; career high of 35) and Mahut (ranked 80; career high of 25) have been successful together. They have reached the quarters of Roland Garros last year and the quarters of the US Open the year before. This match will be played on Thursday.

They can do it. Becker is really on-form.

So is Mahut, but let's ignore that fact. Benneteau is not a threat at all.

Benneteau crumbled today of heat exhaustion I think. Don't imagine this will be too difficult.
I think only Wimbledon has best of 5 for doubles matches.

It's best of 3 sets. So if your reason is that Murray is the doubles specialist, u perhaps mean in 2?

Murray/Becker in 3. It's a tough draw for a first round but they can do it.
