TENNIS.
( b 7 Telegraph—Per Press Association A SYDNEY, Jan. 3i. Borotra and Brugnon were fully extended iu the first set in the match against Coram and Minins, who inane an excellent showing, but thereafter the French champions, who are not yet at their best, having had no opportunity of practice together, gained control, winning the remainder of the sets with ease. Borotra at times intercepted brilliantly at the net and amused the crowd wtili quaint antics, shaping lor a severe smash and then dropping the hall short over the net with a delicate stop shot. liousses and Kalins were at a disadvantage pairing together as both prefer the left court. It would lie difficult for them to secure perfect combination. Bousses angled his volleys well across the court. Kalrns played finely.
