Bad luck for New Zealand tennis player Leanne Baker in the doubles draw for the ASB Classic in Auckland starting on Monday.

The kiwi wildcard entry Baker and doubles partner Francesca Lubiani have been drawn against top seeds Elena Likhovtseva and Vera Zvonareva in the first round.

Baker and Lubiani lost in the final last year having also had to come through a tough first round draw against the number two seeds.

tvnz.co.nz will have live streaming of the action with TV coverage on TV ONE.
