That's a shame. But he lost to a good player and someone a full year older. It's been a great week...
I wonder what's the deal with Piro. Till the end of last year he was, well... decent. This year he has played three tourneys and won all three and won the last two without dropping a set. He's going to be top 5 very soon at this rate.
Wachiramanowong lost in Malaysia, so Cox should be top 50 (+13). It's possible that I'm making a mistake and he'll be 51... Elias will be the only younger player ranked ahead of him.
Evans will be around 29 (+23). The only younger players ranked ahead are Eysseric, Elias and Berankis, so it's good company.
Rice will be around 41 (+15). A few more wins and he becomes the British number two.
It's been a lovely week for the 1990 boys - Dan and Dan in Paraguay, Matt James getting that shock title in Sweden, Pauffley getting those great wins in Luxembourg.
