Paes and Dlouhy ran out of steam in the final of the Japan Open. They lost to the German pair of Youzhny and Mischa Zverev in straight sets 6-3, 6-4. As if by co-incidence this is the second time that the German pair has defeated Paes and Dlouhy a title. If Paes and Dlouhy had won, it would have been his 41st ATP title.
