Paes' eyes on double repeat

NEW YORK: Almost a decade after capturing two doubles titles at Wimbledon in 1999, India's Leander Paes remained on target to replicate the feat at the US Open on Wednesday.

Paes and his Czech partner Lukas Dlouhy sprinted into the men's doubles final by pulverizing Argentine duo Maximo Gonzalez and Juan Monaco 6-2, 6-0.

In the final, they face American brothers Bob Bryan/Mike Bryan who defeated the Spanish and Argentinian combination of Tommy Robredo and Sergio Roitman 6-2, 6-1.
