Duo aiming to become first all-Australian women's doubles pair in half a century to reach all four Grand Slam finals.
Paris, France, 8 June 2017 | Darren Walton, AAP
Comeback queens Casey Dellacqua and Ashleigh Barty are on the verge of accomplishing one of the greatest feats in Australian tennis history after surging into the French Open doubles semifinals in Paris.
Less than a year after returning to tennis from turbulent time-outs, Dellacqua and Barty are one tantalising win away from becoming the first all-Australian pairing to reach the women’s doubles final at all four Grand Slam events in half a century.
A 6-3 6-4 triumph over China’s Saisai Zheng and Romanian Irina-Camelia Begu has thrust the Fed Cup teammates into a showdown on Friday with Czech duo Lucie Hradecka and Katerina Siniakova for a place in Sunday’s title match.

Today Agassi was not in Djokovic's box and won't be for the remainder of the event but I'm sure he has already had a positive impact on Djokovic. Djokovic started out shakily and almost went a double break down at 0-2 but held on and clawed his way back into the first to eventually force a tiebreak.
After the unconvincing first set, Djokovic pulled away and played some terrific tennis. I thought it was a great effort to defeat the player who won the most clay court matches this year in straight sets. And given how Djokovic ended his last match it is kind of expected.
You wouldn't think from this result that Djokovic is struggling. That's because he isn't. He has been on an upward trend since the beginning of the clay court season and just because he went to five sets in his previous match doesn't mean he is struggling.
If anything it was a good thing because it gave him court time, something he hasn't had much of so far this season. But is is also important that he got a convincing win over a very capable opponent today.
