Paes in French Open final

Paes in French Open final

India's Leander Paes and his Czech partner Lukas Dlouhy have entered the men's doubles final after beating top seeds Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic in two hard-fought sets 7-6, 7-6 in the semifinals on Thursday.

The third-seeded duo, who sealed their win after a attritional battle that lasted one hour and 48 minutes, will now meet the unseeded South African-Belgian pairing of Wesley Moodie and Dick Norman in the final.

Moodie and Norman had cored an upset semifinal victory over the second-seeded American brothers duo of Bob and Mike Bryan 0-6, 7-6 (5), 6-4.

Paes has already won two French Open men's doubles titles in partnership with Mahesh Bhupathi, in 1999 and 2001.

Dlouhy previously made it to the final in 2007, in partnership with fellow Czech Pavel Vazner.
