Dart, 26, and experienced Watson, 31, were beaten by Ukrainian Kichenok and Latvian Ostapenko in the third round at the All England Club last year. “All round we both played really well and were a great team – we’re always a great team – it was so fun and can’t wait for the second round. “We always have really tough matches with them and going into it we knew it was going to be very challenging.
