Lee and Lukas's poor run on US hard court season ended with first round loss at US Open ... They had poor US hard court season, losing in both Masters in first round in straight sets ... But still hoping better performance from them knowing their grand slam record ... But facing experienced pair in first round didn't help their cause.

Other hand first-time grand slam seeded pair of Rohan and Aisam had winning start ... Though last set went to tie-break but our pair completed win in straight sets.

Mixed doubles draw is out ... 2005 MXD US Open winner pair Mahesh and Daniela Hantuchova are playing together ... But they are having tough draw as in second round they can face experienced pair of Lee and Cara.
