MELBOURNE, Australia – A lot of Canadian content on the juniors side, along with the pride of Caledon, Ont. – Cana-Kiwi Erin Routliffe – the only Canadian remaining in doubles or mixed.

She and fellow Kiwi (No Canuck blood) Michael Venus played their second-round match and were into the quarterfinals – only to fall to Mladenovic and Dodig. Good run, though.
