–

MELBOURNE, Australia – The start of the doubles was delayed a day, because the schedule was just too packed on Wednesday with all the catching up on the singles side.

But it begins in earnest Thursday, with the brother pair of Stefanos and Petros Tsitsipas among those taking part.

Cana-Kiwi Erin Routliffe and partner Alicja Rosolska are the No. 14 seeds.

And Samantha Stosur, in her final tournament ever, is a wild card into the doubles with Alizé Cornet.

Melbourne is 16 hours ahead of Eastern time.
