In the doubles at Binghamton, Greg was partnered by good friend and namesake, American Greg Ouellette. Their opposition was the USA pairing of 23 year old Derek Difasio and 33 year old Craig Schwartz. College player Difasio is unranked while local Schwartz has a doubles only ATP ranking of 833. With Jonesy serving first the "Gregs" got off to a solid start, holding serve and breaking the USA pairing in their first service game to lead 2-0. They continued their dominance in the sudden death deuce format through the first set, holding their serve easily and breaking the serveof their opposition twice more to deliver a "bagel" 6-0 first set score-line.
Difasio and Schwartz got on themselves on the scoreboard in the second set but not before Greg had broken them again, and trailed 1-3. Greg and Greg were then able to hold their serve easily and cruised through the second set, winning it 6-3 and the match 6-0, 6-3, to progress through to the second round.
Greg has a rest day in the singles and will play his second round match tomorrow.
