Very dominating win by Rohan and Aisam in 59 mins ... Only once they lost their serve when Rohan lost his serve when they were leading 4-2 in second set ... Next they r facing 15th seed local pair.

After winning first set Lee and Lukas lost second set ... Third set also they started on bad note losing first game but they broke back in 6th game to bring set on the serve ... Immediately Lee and Lukas broke opponent's serve in 8th game to take lead and then hold their serve easily to complete the win.

Mahesh and Max lost serve in 9th game to lose first set ... In second set they were early break down but they came back breaking Spanish pair's serve late in the set ... But Spanish pair comfortably won tie-break to won match in straight sets.

Mahesh challenge got over from French Open with his first round loss in mixed doubles ... His one-sided loss was surprising considering Mahesh and Liezel Huber were top-seeds ... Disappointing French open for Mahesh.
