Prediction: If BMS/Querrey lose the final, it will be because of the latter.

Are you watching this, or just monitoring the score? It's not on ESPN (of course), nor the Tennis Channel.

Congrats to Martina and Leander. :clap

First MD Pair to win three GS titles in the same year since 1969. :clap

Hingis is in the women's doubles final, too, so she has a chance to win two majors this weekend.

Grand Slam title No. 18, maybe No. 19.

Ye, she can. Actually, Martina and Sania are favorites in that final. The mixed doubles was more of a question mark going in. On paper, the women's doubles final should be much easier.

Anyway, if she wins, she would have lifted as many doubles GS trophies this year alone as she has singles GS trophies in her entire career. :clap

Both Martinas have won more after retirement than most women in their entire careers! Amazing! I wonder how that makes them feel? :p :cover :clap :angel: :dodgy:

France's Pierre-Hughes Herbert and Nicolas Mahut wins the men's doubles title by beating Great Britain's Jaime Murray and Australia's John Peers 6-4, 6-4 in the final. This is the first Grand Slam title for both.

Congrats to Mahut/Herbert. :clap :celeb:

Mahut must be particularly thrilled, after losing a few GS doubles finals, most memorably the heartbreaking 2013 RG doubles final.

Ever since he lost that 70-68 fifth set against Isner at Wimbledon, I've had a soft spot for the guy. Glad to see he came through and won a Slam. :clap

Sania DF's and gives the break back.
