Tennis News -
At The Championships Wimbledon 2008,

Mixed Doubles -
[R2] (10) Leander Paes (IND)/ Rennae Stubbs (AUS) l Jonas Bjorkman (SWE)/ Alicia Molik (AUS) 36 63 36
[R2] (11) Mahesh Bhupathi (IND)/ Sania Mirza (IND) l Igor Andreev (RUS)/ Maria Kirilenko (RUS) 67(4) 36

So with that our MXD challenge got over ... Very disappointing Wimby for Mahesh with early exit in doubles and MXD ... Rohan had wonderful debut with winning single round in doubles and MXD ... Lee is still alive in doubles and hopefully go deep in the draw ... Considering Sania's return from injury this Wimby turning into satisfying as she got chance to test her wrist and still remaining in doubles which is less demanding on her wrist.

At $10K USA F15 Futures, Rochester, NY

[SF] (8) Somdev Dev Varman (IND,793) bt Bryan Koniecko (USA,827) 75 63
[F] (8) Somdev Dev Varman (IND,793) vs Alexander Domijan (1045)

As per onlooker, Somi struggled with his game mainly his serve ... In both set they traded multiple breaks but Somi showed his metal to win important points ... Somi mentioned this was his off-day so hopefully today we will see different Somi which we use to see ... :)

What I liked from this match that while struggling with his game Somi still kept fighting without losing his focus ... Great stuff champ.

Tomorrow will be a very important day for Daniel ... As he needs one more solid round to win this and secure Ryder Cup spot.
