Rajeev Ram and Joe Salisbury survived a first-round scare Tuesday at the Rothesay International in Eastbourne.
The second seeds saved two match points in a Match Tie-break to defeat Robert Galloway and Miguel Angel Reyes-Varela 6-3, 6-7(6), 13-11. Ram and Salisbury won 86 per cent of points behind their first delivery and will next face Romain Arneodo and Sam Weissborn in the second round.
Top seeds Ivan Dodig and Austin Krajicek continued their hot streak by ousting Argentines Francisco Cerundolo and Tomas Martin Etcheverry. Dodig and Krajicek have won 11 consecutive matches with titles at Roland Garros and last week in London. The Croatian-American pair will next meet home favourites Liam Broady and Jonny O’Mara.
Mallorca
Yuki Bhambri and Lloyd Harris cruised past Alexander Erler and Lucas Miedler 6-3, 6-2 after winning 23 of 25 first-serve points at the Mallorca Championships. The Indian-South African duo did not face a break point throughout the 52-minute contest to set a second-round clash against fourth seeds Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos.
Robin Haase and Philipp Oswald saved all five break points faced as they rallied to beat French duo Sadio Doumbia and Fabien Reboul 6-7(4), 6-3, 10-8.
