    What would have happened if Roddick/Blake won the doubles? Would Roddick play the Final Doubles first and then the Singles Doubles? I wonder how they would have done the program? Well done to the French guys... they played well.

    Congrats Gicquel and Chardy. Gicquel is very underrated as a doubles player. Must be doing something right. Two years in a row in the final.
