WESLEY KOOLHOF ON HOW TO PROMOTE THE DOUBLES GAME – “The biggest thing is marketing. Obviously the singles guys are the big stars and we also need the big stars to play doubles as well to get more viewers, but I think mainly the marketing side of doubles could be looked at.”

NEAL SKUPSKI ON DOUBLES GLOBAL NATURE – “The points are going to be a lot shorter, quicker around the net, a lot of fun points, it’s a completely different game. It depends on where we go in the world, for example when we go to America we tend to see a lot more fans come just to watch the doubles and places around the world as well, certain countries. Doubles just needs to be shown more on tv to get us out there.”

LOUIS CAYER ON HOW THE DOUBLES GAME HAS CHANGED OVER THE YEARS – “The game has changed a lot. When I started there was less than 10 per cent of the serves staying back in doubles, now its over 60 per cent. It’s very normal now for top singles players and even some doubles players to stay back because of the quality of the return.”

AUSTIN KRAJICEK ON REACHING NUMBER ONE EARLIER IN THE YEAR – ‘It’s been a goal of mine to win a Grand Slam and being number one ever since I was a kid. Sometimes it didn’t feel it’s attainable and it was a surreal thing, just for a week as Wesley Koolhof and Neal Skupski passed me by, but I can always say I was number one and hopefully I can get back there.”
