Will use the same website for Davis Cup in Serbia, alongside ITD, of course.

Cheers,
Florian

Florian I'm glad to see your doubles coverage on your website - this is a great idea since mainstream coverage for doubles is not that great!

Sharan/Sitak lost to 7th seeded Kubot/Melo 36 63 36 in R2.
Chardy/Martin (conquerors of Paes/Cerretani) best the second seeds in R2.
