Josh wins and advances to 214

that's all of last year's points defended. Now to push on!

Now then, can Jamie win, and Clemens lose?

I wonder if I'm missing something. I have Josh with 3 points to defend over this fortnight - from Sunderland QFs in the first week of IW last year - you seem to have him defending 6.

I know he got 3 more points for a QF in Manchester in the second week of IW last year, but they don't come off at the end of IW, they come off a week later.

Are there 3 more points somewhere that I've forgotten about?

Hmm - looking at Josh's breakdown, it looks like you're right - just the 3 points for Sunderland. I think we might have had it down as a 15K rather than a 10K. Any ideas Bethan? I'll change it - thanks!

RobC · All-time great

Excellent - that takes him up to 210

A finals place will take him to his career high, and a tournament win into the top 200!

El Aynaoui and Crivoi are now threats in Morocco: They overtake if they win their quarter- finals.

yeah, that's the only thing I can think...or I simply made a mistake and typed a 6 when I meant 3. Either works, still it's good news.

Yes, that's the best kind of mistake to make

I always assume I must be wrong because I do my tables so fast these days (and often I am), I guess with all the tables you two look after, you must fill them in like lightning too! Still, nice that we can keep an eye on each other.

Josh's win only takes him up to 212, as both El Aynaoui and Crivoi won in Morocco and stay ahead of him.

Jamie's loss means that Alan and Greg are safe. He stays at 264, down 15 on the week. Crugnola lost, so at least he's not threatened much from behind this week.

Gonzalez overtakes Jonny

Greg and Jonny will be overtaken in the morning: either by Alan or by Bohli: Let's hope it's Alan

Stadler will come within a point of Josh if he wins.

Jamie's hopefully at 264, not 364!

Come on the Big Mac(K)in(g) the Knife tonight!!!!

Bohli overtakes Alan, Greg and Jonny

Alan down to 259, Greg to 255, Jonny to 251. Just 5 players in the top 250 now

Jamie is indeed at 264, not 364 (although after that performance he deserves that drop!)

Stadler loses.

Josh can rise to 202 if he wins his semi today and both El Aynaoui and Crivoi lose theirs in Morocco. If he wins the tournament, he can rise to 196 and only one of them can win the Morocco F1.

The only threat today is Snobel who can overtake Jamie if he beats Kindlmann in Kyoto in the morning.

Otherwise, look out for: Kindlmann himself, who overtakes Josh if he wins Kyoto, and Josh goes out today; Fornell who goes level with Jamie if he wins Spain F9A, and Guga Kuerten, who can overtake them all with a big run in Indian Wells.

Josh is knocked out, staying at WR 212 (up 2 on the week). El Aynaoui and Crivoi both win in Morocco & disappear off the top of the table.

Gonzalez and Fornell both lose.

The only threat tonight is Snobel who can overtake Jamie if he beats Kindlmann in Kyoto in the morning.

Snobel is knocked out by Kindlmann

Now we need Kindlmann to be beaten by the shock wildcard finalist, Takao Suzuki, ranked 471 last week, and who's so far beaten Go Soeda (WR192), Knittel, Przysiezny (WR 197) and Alan's victor Bohli to reach the final.

Go Takao!

Takao Suzuki does the business: Kindlmann is beaten by the shock wildcard finalist, ranked 471

So Josh ends the week at 212
