I feel like it would be a shame to get rid of doubles, but I guess it's on the doubles players' responsibilities to find a way to make it lucrative.

half lost match matches past percent reason serve year
It's disappointing, but it's actually more frustrating than anything else because I feel like I lost that match for the same reason that I've lost 99 percent of my matches over the past year and a half or so. My serve just really let me down today.

This is costing me a lot in pride, too!
