Carter Hayley / Stefani Luisa (POD) 2-0 | 1.90 |10 UNTIS
Carter Hayley / Stefani Luisa is playing really good, I played against them against Hsieh Su-Wei / Strycova Barbora in Rome, had them to lose 2-0, witch they did Hsieh Su-Wei / Strycova Barbora won all games in Rome 2-0.
BUT... after I placed the but I notice that Carter Hayley / Stefani Luisa had won at least 1 set in 35 of their 37 games together (!!!!!) which is CRAZY.
So I was a bit worried but they Hsieh and Strycova went 5-0 up in the first set.... ok no worries here! but then Carter Hayley / Stefani Luisa won 5 straight games to 5-5 (!!) against the best double pair in the world. They lost the first set 7-5 but in the second they where up 0-40 and had 4 breakballs at 4-4 and if they had break the would be serving for the second set.
But Hsieh and Strycova manage to hold and then break so they won the second set as well 6-4, this was Carter Hayley / Stefani first lose on clay.
They are 8-1.
Stephens Sloane A. - Teichmann Jil Belen have never played together they only play this match because they have to play doubles. Sloane is already out of the singles and want to go to Paris asap to she can practice at Roland Garros.
Sloane is ranked 1157 in doubles is 25/44 and on clay 3/10 since 2009.
Teichmann is ranked 287 and have played some doubles 81/49 and 50/28 on Clay but most of her wins was early in her career now she only focus on her single game.
She hasen't played any double on clay this year and last year she was 1/4 on clay.
Teichmann also playing Svitolina E in QF here and is not going to risk anything in this game.
Easy 2-0 win here, wouldn't be surprised Sloane already is in Paris and they leave a walkover here.
