- Australian duo knock out eighth-seeded Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos
- Pair seeking to emulate last year’s win by Special Ks admit they are ‘winging it’

Rinky Hijikata and Jason Kubler have been “winging it” through the doubles draw and on Thursday stormed into the final after smoking the far more experienced combination of Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos.
