[R1] (4) Mahesh Bhupathi (IND)/ Mark Knowles (BAH) l Stephen Huss (AUS)/ Ross Hutchins (GBR) 46 46

Huge upset by Huss and Hutchins over one of title favorite Mark and Hesh ... So with that Hesh and Mark ended their poor clay season ... Now both r playing in MXD at FO.

But Other hand thumping win for first-time pair Lee and Dlouhy against Ratiwatana twins ... Great start for this pair ... Now after Mahesh's loss our hopes r pinning on lee in doubles.
