Firstly, who was weilding pins yesterday? Of the list of 7 threats I wrote out 6 of them lost and Sluiter withdrew without my realising! I only wish I'd noticed Dlouhy was a threat before, we could've gotten him out as well.
So what's left for Alex this week? Well he's currently sitting pretty at 108. (+2 on the week), he's under threat from:
Seppi (who needs only one win to move past) Haase (who needs to reach the semis, ie two wins) and that's it. An excellent day really except for the fact that Alex himself lost obviously.
So best case for the week: 108 (+2 and a new career high). worst case for the week: 110 (nc and still a career high!)
