RE: Greg and Josh and Richard's competitors week 4 (Wrexham CH etc)


Richard gets to the semis, and rises to World 199.  But can he stay there?

Are the ladies of the coven up for a bit of pin work?

If so, target Montcourt, Vico and Przysiezny today, and Fognini and Ram tonight!

I'll do what I can

Who is Bloomers' next opponent? I'll put a couple of pins into them too.

Either Vico, who'll be easier to beat, but who'll overtake if he does beat Richard, or Faurel, who's the number 1 seed, but out of the picture in terms of rankings.

So can we engineer a Vico win today, then a Bloomers victory tomorrow?

The durban results are in:  Not good news: Montcourt beat Udomchoke, and overtakes Richard & Greg.

Richard is now WR200 - clinging onto that top 200 place with his fingernails. Greg drops to WR199.

Ah well, that one failed: Vico lost to Faurel.  Bloomers must face the number 1 seed tomorrow!

The good news, though, is that that makes it one less player who can overtake.

Well, I've extended the table upwards, so that Richard can fit in behind Alex Calatrava if he can beat Faurel today.

Montcourt  climbs off the top of the table. Garcia advances. Stakhovsky goes out to a certain J Baker. Richard draws level with Greg

Fognini overtakes Josh who drops down to WR215.

Przysienzny advances onto the bottom of the table to threaten Josh.

The "What if" Post:

(Excluding futures results)

If Bloomers wins in Wrexham, he will rise to WR 180.
Odesnik(F,Waikoloa), Garcia(W,San) and Montcourt(F, Durban) are threats. All 3 can overtake, so worst case is WR 183.


If Bloomers gets to the final, he climbs to 189 .
Garcia(F,San), and Fognini (W, San) are threats. Both can overtake, so worst case is WR 191. (Still a career high)

If Bloomers loses to Faurel today, he stays at 200Fognini (F, San) and Przysiezny (W, Wre) are threats. both can overtake, so worst case is WR202 .



Greg is at WR199. Bloomers(F, Wre), Fognini (F, San) and Przysiezny (W, Wre) are threats. All 3 can overtake, so worst case is WR202.

Josh is at WR215. Przysiezny (F, Wre)  can overtake, so worst case is WR216.



Alan Mackin is at WR245. Jamie Baker can overtake, so worst case is WR246.

Jonny Marray is at WR250. Jamie Baker can overtake, so worst case is WR251.

Montcourt won in Durban. That's one place lower for Richard if he wins the tournament.

Bloomers wins and is ranked 188!!! He's the new number 4 in British Mens tennis!

Whereabouts will he be ranked if he wins tomorrow (and ends up on 232 pts)

errr.....if you look up about 3 posts:

"If Bloomers wins in Wrexham, he will rise to WR 180.
Odesnik(F,Waikoloa), Garcia(W,San) and Montcourt(F, Durban) are threats. All 3 can overtake, so worst case is WR 183."

The table's updated, and it'll need extending again Richard climbs to WR189.

.....which knocks Greg down to World number 200 and British number 5.

It's been a really bad fortnight for Josh. Przysiezny is the latest of umpteen players to overtake him, and he's now ranked 216. Which is where he'll end the week.

Fognini beat Hernandez, and knocks Greg out of the top 200: Greg's now at 201

Garcia lost to Vassalo Arguello, so richard stays at WR189. (Garcia seems to be quite badly injured)


Next up: Odesnik - Baker in Waikoloa: If Odesnik wins, Richard can't overtake him if he wins the final tomorrow.
