A rocky service game for Gordon Reid sees Stephane Houdet and Tokito Oda win back-to-back games against the top seeds.

The unseeded pair opened up two break back points before Reid overcooked a volley at the net at 30-40 down.

Houdet is using his experience to control the rallies from the back of the court at the moment and things are getting a bit rocky for the British pairing out there.

How often do you see a 'bagel' in a final?

Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski are desperately trying to avoid suffering that fate.

Horacio Zeballos and Marcel Granollers are just too good at the net - it's incredibly positive and the Britons just don't have an answer.

Neal Skupski's serve is fired straight back at him and the 35-year-old can only return into the net.

Horacio Zeballos will serve for the opening set.

This is starting to get very ugly for the British pair of Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski.

Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos are showing them absolutely no respect.

Stephane Houdet and Tokito Oda execute some brilliant points to take another service hold and extend the opening set in this men's wheelchair doubles final.

They are still in this opening set, thanks to a thumping ace from 54-year-old Houdet and some heavy hitting from Oda.

Can Gordon Reid serve out this opening set?

Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos have been playing together for much longer - first pairing up in August 2019 - and that bond is already showing.

Granollers on serve now. The Spaniard with an emphatic volley to lead 30-15.

Lovely stuff from Zeballos at the net with a deft touch before Neal Skupski goes long.

A healthy lead already built.

Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid restore their three-game cushion to go within one game of sealing the first set on Court Suzanne-Lenglen.

Hewett put away an overhead smash with conviction - and a smile - to save break point and bring things level at deuce, before Houdet made an unforced error to hand the top seeds the hold.

That is the third deuce-point they have won since the start of this final.

They get it at the first time of asking as Joe Salisbury overcooks his forehand and it ends up long.

This opening set could be over very swiftly.

We're only three games into this opening set but this one already feels big.

Can Joe Salisbury fare better than team-mate Neal Skupski on serve?

Ah. The British pair trail 40-0 and have three break points to defend.

Neal Skupski gets it horribly wrong and fires long but he makes up for it to get back to 30-30 with a beautiful hook down the line.

Horacio Zeballos looks really potent on serve.

Tokito Oda closes the gap to just two games with a brilliant service game.

At 0-15 down, Stephane Houdet powered towards the net and landed a lovely backhand slice over the net, which Alfie Hewett could all but just admire.

Oda was never going to miss an opportunity to close out his service game at 40-15 up, with a sweetly-hit cross-court forehand winner to lessen the gap.

This time it's Marcel Granollers who takes up a great position at the net and he slips a volley in between the British duo.

After just two points in the opening game, Neal Skupski and Joe Salisbury have a chat to discuss some early tactical adjustments.

Whatever the chat was about it doesn't come to fruition as Skupski double faults and then Horacio Zeballos steps up to the net to hit a volley winner.

Warm-ups done, a ripple of applause and now it's time for action.

Briton Neal Skupski is set to serve first.

Not since 1933 have a British duo won the French Open men's doubles title.

Fred Perry and Pat Hughes teamed up to beat Australians Vivian McGrath and Adrian Quist.

Hughes also featured in the 1936 final alongside fellow Englishman Raymond Tuckey, but they came up short against French pair Jean Borotra and Marcel Bernard.

That was the last time any Brits appeared in the men's doubles final at the clay Grand Slam.

That's another service hold on the board for Gordon Reid, after Tokito Oda overcooks a backhand from the back of the court.

There seems to be a little bit of confusion between Houdet and Oda at the moment, with both showing some hesitancy with their shot-taking.

Hewett and Reid have a three-game cushion over their unseeded opponents after 23 minutes out on court.

My French isn't great but I can understand the message from the umpire telling the players they have three minutes remaining...

Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski have just won the coin toss and elected to serve first.

The quartet are going through their warm-ups now and we should be under way soon.

It seems that 10 minute warning for this men's doubles final was a little premature but we have just seen the players walking on to Court Philippe Chatrier.

The crowd is quite a bit smaller than it was for the earlier women's singles final but there's a good British support with flags waving as Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski made their way out.

Elsewhere, British pair Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid are in men's wheelchair doubles final action out on Court Suzanne-Lenglen.

The five-time defending champions, and top seeds at Roland Garros, have already opened up a firm 3-1 lead over France's Stephane Houdet and Japan's Tokito Oda.
