Australian Open 2017 - Day 12

[ChookMFC]

Team Bucie are in control in this second set, but the Hlavackova / Peng doubles team is very strong — especially considering how little time they've been together for.

Hlavackova getting frustrated over a screen, no one else is complaining

 

[ChookMFC]

That attempted body shot by BMS would make Stan Wawrinka proud!

 

[Hamingja]

Looks like Peers is going to be the only Aussie slam hope remaining after today.

Still not sure if BMS or Bryan who withdrew from mixed yesterday. Since BMS is in to the third set in the women's doubles it must have been Bryan.

 

[Drummond]

Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly care about doubles, but it's disrespectful to the players making this a ticketed session at high prices. It's a final for crying out loud, it deserves to be played in front of more than 100 people. Open the gates!

Guccione lost in the other mixed doubles semi; OMG, what a failure, he is shite, what a disgrace to Australia!

I am surprised Gucc made the semis lol

This women's doubles finals is entertaining.

Women's doubles is often played at a pretty high level since most of the top female singles players actually also play doubles. Mixed and men's doubles is a joke because most of the top players are just failed singles players who couldn't make it on their own.

These girls are so good and quick at the net! It's shame there's only 100 people watching them.

 

[BobbyMorri]

BMS is a great net player.

 

[ChookMFC]

Yes! Team Bucie gets there!

I am using the tennis app at the moment, and they did show the celebrations and thankfully showing us the trophy presentation.

"We started the draw with 128. We're down to 125". Oh gosh. Is this guy actually simple? Like should I feel sorry for him instead of continuously abusing him?

 

[ChookMFC]

lol Peng dropped her trophy!

 

[ChookMFC]

BMS is like..."er, thanks to the 100 people who turned up today. Doubles isn't that bad you guys!"
