Bootie and Chicken wings and Aucks and Huss's rankings week 9
Permalink  

The new table is posted here (On Britishtennis.net) - thanks Guy!

It's now Jamie & Bootie's turn to try some masterful inactivity (c) Tim Henman.

As the week begins, Jamie's career- high, top 50 ranking of 44 goes straight up to 42, as Coetzee and Skoch drop below him. Aucks also rises into the 50s for the first time - up 4 places to 58. Bootie goes up to WR 40 and Steven Huss one to 48.

Aucks has a chance to improve his ranking further this week, but Jamie & Bootie are sidelined.

Unfortunately, most of their competitors are in action this week, so it remains to be seen whether they can maintain their advances or not.

Big Jamie threats are Coetzee and Skoch. Bootie's also threatened by Haggard. Aucks's main targets are Reynolds, vliegen and Mahut, while he needs to watch out for Ollie Rochus and Radek Stepanek.

Jamie drops down to WR 43 as Skoch wins in Acapulco. Aucks also drops down a place to 59 after Oli Rochus wins in Dubai.

Lindstedt, Vliegen and Mertinak also advance places on a day where none of the Brit's rivals lose.

A number of competitors play today. Jamie's current biggest threats Coetzee and Goldstein play in Dubai and Las Vegas respectively.

Still no Brits in action on Tuesday - Aucks will most likely play Wednesday, Jamie is still hoping for an alternate place to become available, and further down the rankings Goodall (WR158), Bloomfield (WR337) and Childs (WR519) will all be playing in Wolfsburg tomorrow.

Week 9 "what if"

Jamie currently WR44 on the latest ATP doubles rankings (7th with Butorac in the race)
Jamie currently WR43 on the latest live ranking (7th with Botorac in the race)

This thread will change if Jamie and Butorac make the Las Vegas draw as alternates.

His highest possible ranking next Monday is 43.

He can be overtaken by -
Coetzee, if he reaches the quarters at Dubai.
Goldstein if he reaches the final at Las Vegas.
Moodie if he reaches the final at Las Vegas.
Lindstedt if he wins Las Vegas.
Huss if he wins Las Vegas.
Benneteau if he wins Las Vegas.
Youzhny if he wins Dubai.
Vliegen if he wins Dubai.

His lowest possible ranking is 47.

All the pairings immediately below Jamie and Butorac in the race are playing this week - the first immediate threats to 7th place are from Dlouhy/Vizner and Montanes/Ramirez-Hildago who can both overtake by reaching the semi finals in Acapulco (only one of the pairings can as they are in the same quarter of the draw).

So "Auckland and Huss" is no- more?? (I'd assumed they weren't playing together because Stephen was injured)  - or could they just not qualify as a team, and so sought higher- ranked partners??  We should be told!!

Auckland and Huss wouldn't have made the draw as a pairing so we'll just have to wait a few weeks to see if they resume their partnership.

Jamie threat Coetzee and near target Wassen lose to Hanley and Ullyett 10-4 in the super tie-break.
Jamie distant threat Youzhny and Davydenko lose to near target Allegro and Federer.

Updated "what if" -

His highest possible ranking next Monday is 43.

He can be overtaken by -
Goldstein if he reaches the final at Las Vegas.
Moodie if he reaches the final at Las Vegas.
Lindstedt if he wins Las Vegas.
Huss if he wins Las Vegas.
Benneteau if he wins Las Vegas.
Vliegen if he wins Dubai.

His lowest possible ranking is 46.

So no threats now on Jamie's ranking until Friday night/Saturday.

Benjamin Becker has just lost in straight sets to Jan Hernych - hopefully he's so disgusted with his performance he storms off and forgets about his doubles match, letting Jamie and Butorac step in to go deep in the tournament!!!! Lol

Or Nicolas Mahut can do likewise after his drubbing;)

The new table is posted here (On Britishtennis.net)

Aucks stays at WR 59 after winning his first round match in Las Vegas.

Pala, Stepanek, Mertinak and Kubot all advance places on Wednesday.

Huss and Cibulec go out. Reynolds loses overnight in Vegas.

Jamie threat Moodie plays overnight in Las Vegas. Sa, Parrott, Garcia and Prieto play overnight in Acapulco.

Goodall (WR158) reaches the semi finals in Wolfsburg, gaining 22 points, but is defending 25 points from the British Satellite last year so will drop slightly in the rankings as things stand.
Bloomfield (WR337) and Childs (WR519) lose in Wolfsburg.

Bryan/Bryan vs Moodie/Perry has just appeared on the scoreboard at Vegas, which means that Jamie and Butorac miss out on playing this week (this is the last of the 1st round matches). Two very strange wild cards given out here instead of to Jamie, so hopefully common sense will prevail next week and they'll get their wild card for Indian Wells.
