Robinson and Barker aim for double
[by dm - 14 Mar 2004]

Alister Robinson and Guy Barker are seeded to add the Lacoste Open Doubles to the Amateur Doubles which they won last month

The Lacoste Open Doubles promises to be a replay of last months Amateur Doubles with Barker and Robinson seeded to meet Tim Cockroft and Guy Smith-Bingham who they beat in the seventh game of that contest. Up to the last point the result was in doubt and if these two pairs meet again there is no reason to think that it will not be as close, although there can be no doubt that Robinson was below his best during that final.

A pairing that will take many gallery wathchers back is the third seeding of World Champion James Male and former World Champion John Prenn. These two, who last won this Championship in 1995, could well spring a surprise in their projected semi final with second seeds Cockroft and Smith-Bingham. The projected semi final opponents for the No 1 seeds are Radley Professional Mark Hubbard and Alex Smith-Bingham.
