One of the best young doubles teams on the ATP World Tour faced an unusual challenge in Auckland on Wednesday, as Jack Sock overcame difficult weather conditions to defeat Vasek Pospisil 6-2, 6-4 in the pair’s first meeting.

“It was my first time playing one of my best friends on tour and my doubles partner, so it was definitely a bit difficult,” Sock said. “The conditions were tough for both of us but maybe I managed it a little better. I’ve definitely seen him play much better tennis all these years we’ve been on tour together. It was a matter of who could keep the ball in the court with the wind swirling. We’ll have some more good battles in the future.”

Both men are coming off strong 2015 showings and are among the Top 40 in the Emirates ATP Rankings. For Sock, having to play each other in an ATP World Tour event was just a matter of time.

“We knew we were going to play each other at some point in our careers,” Sock said. “It’s inevitable. But I hope there will be many more in the future, in big matches.”

Meanwhile, the Canadian and the American, who won four team titles and narrowly missed out qualifying for the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals in the past two years, will continue to team up on the doubles court. They are set to make their season debut together at the Australian Open next week.

“[We’ll be playing in Melborne] if he’s talking to me,” joked Sock when asked about when everything will be back to normal between the two pals. “Just give it a day or two.”
