Mariano Puerta and Javier Sánchez were the defending champions, but Sánchez did not compete this year, as he played his last professional tournament at Bogotá before his retirement during this season.[1] Puerta teamed up with Marcelo Ríos and withdrew before their semifinals match to focus on the singles tournament, as both players reached the final.
