Roland Garros II - Men's Doubles
GRAND SLAM - Saturday (Day Seven) - Paris, France - Clay (Red)
  • Second seeds Heath Davis and Jojo Mustard have won through to the quarter finals of Roland Garros with a convincing straight sets win over Croatia's Ivan Češljar and Nilikar Midid. Still untroubled this week, the West CWLanders continued their push to the World No. 1 spot with some dynamic tennis despite both players coming off a packed week of alternating singles and doubles action. The Croats lacked the firepower to match the Westerners as Davis continued to look absolutely top notch on serve as he took a whole heap of confidence from his big win over Radivoj Daneu yesterday. Mustard, meanwhile, is one of the best volleyers in the game and has people predicting big things at Wimbledon. The second seeds through with a 6-3, 6-2 win and meet ninth seeded Belgian pairing Mark Harmel and Yves Parmentier after they edged out Carlos Machado and Denis Rodrígues 7-6(3), 7-5.
  • In the second quarter final, sixteenth seeds Mikel Fosdike and Christian Mary will meet unseeded East European duo Ivars Emsis and Alexey Yarkin. The French duo beat Felipe Menon and Roberto Santos 6-4, 6-3 while Emsis and Yarkin stunned rampaging fifth seeds Sandro Bachunelli and Hicham Hadir 6-3, 3-6, 7-6(5).
  • Seeded players out: Sandro Bachunelli & Hicham Hadir; Carlos Machado & Denis Rodrígues.
