Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi/Jean-Julien Rojer 3  6 [6] Bob Bryan/Mike Bryan         6   7 [8]

So Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi's Olympic dream is all but over. He can, reportedly, still make it if he receives a wildcard entry from the organisers. Qureshi and Jean-Julien Rojer showed a lot of intent against the second-seeded Bryans but were unable to capitalise on their advantages. There wasn't much difference between the two sides but the men's doubles world-record-holders showed whey they have multiple grand-slam titles under their belt. (Scroll down for older updates)

[Earlier report] Pakistan’s Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi is a few hours away from finding out his fate for the London Olympics, as he and his Dutch partner Jean-Julien Rojer take on Bob and Mike Bryan in the semi-finals of the French Open.

Qureshi and Rojer face the number two seeds, whom they beat in the Madrid Masters last month, in the second men’s doubles semi-final late Thursday.

A win in the match on Rolland Garros’s Suzanne Lenglen court will help Qureshi improve his ATP doubles ranking and make him eligible to represent Pakistan at the London Olympics next month.

In the first semi-final, top seeds Daniel Nestor and Max Mirnyi beat the Italion duo of Daniele Bracciali and Potito Starace. The top seeds won the match 6-3, 6-4.

This year’s French Open run has been Qureshi’s best of his career, while his first grand slam final came in 2010, when he and Rohan Bopanna of India qualified for the men’s doubles final at the US Open. The pair lost to the Bryan brothers in straight sets.
