DOUBLES QUALIFIERS

Lukas Dlouhy & Pavel Vizner

Lukas Dlouhy and Pavel Vizner were invited to their first Tennis Masters Cup in Shanghai, after Jonathan Erlich and Andy Ram lost in the BNP Paribas Masters first round.

The Czech duo, the No. 6-ranked team in the Stanford ATP Doubles Race, has enjoyed a successful season that includes one ATP title and three runner-up finishes.

Dlouhy and Vizner won the Costa do Sauipe title in February (d. Montanes-Ramirez Hidalgo) and later in the month were beaten finalists at Acapulco (l. to Starace-Vassallo Arguello).

The highlight of their campaign included title matches at Roland Garros (l. to Knowles-Nestor) and the US Open (l. to Aspelin-Knowle).
