The third match of the Men’s Doubles Quarter Final Match in
Wimbledon 2012 is between Marcelo Melo and Ivan Dodig, a Brazilian-Croatian
tandem and Jurgen Melzer and Philipp Petzschner, an Austrian German pair. This
match will come up with the third pair for the semi final round in men’s
doubles category on grass court. In their last round when they got qualified
for the last eight, both the sides have struggled for a win in their respective
matches through a roller coaster path.
The Brazilian-Croatian pair reached the quarter final after
defeating Indo-Czech pair, Leander Paes and Radek Stepanek in 4-6, 6-3, 6-4,
6-7 (2-6), 8-6 score line. The match was interrupted due to rain and was suspended
till the next day. Dodig and Melo were in a leading position by 4-6, 6-3, 4-3
when the match was stopped on Monday evening. Later suspension was declared and
the match resumed on Tuesday. But again due to rain, the match was delayed by
an hour and when the contenders returned, the Indo-Czech pair came back on
track and ended the fourth set in a tie breaker. They were in full swing in
that round but later, Peas served in an erroneous way where Melo took the
advantage and delivered a high raised volley which brought them a 4-1 lead. But
they failed to maintain it as their opponent bounced back in the battle to
level the game. Through these ups and downs, finally Melo and Dodig managed to
return in full swing after the second rain interruption on Tuesday and called
for a winning match to be in the quarter final at All England Club.
On the other hand, to compete with the 15th
seeded Melo and Dodig for the semi final position, Austrian German pair, Jurgen
Melzer and Philipp Petzschner defeated their third round Uzbekistan-Russian
opponent, Denis Istomin and Mikhail Elgin in 6-4, 6-4, 5-7, 6-7 (9-11), 16-14
score line. The rain interrupted match finally came in the hands of the tenth
seeded tandem; who is the US Open doubles Grand Slam champions. Now in the
quarter final round, it will not be an easy game for both the sides to reign
over the other because both are equally competent to book a spot in the next
round. Based on the world ranking, the Uzbekistan-Russian pair is the favorite.
But when both the sides have ended their last battle in an error-strewn way,
there is a 1:1 chance for both the sides to be in the semi final.
