Josh was defending 35 points from reaching the final in Manchester last year, plus 18 points from winning the 2006 Felixstowe Challenger. As a result he plunges out of the top 300 and off the bottom of my table. He might reappear with a semi- final place in Manchester.
Bloomers advances a massive 9 places to 226 as competitors defend big points from 2006 : Bopanna, Sweeting, Knittel, Sa, Recouderc, Martin, Stakhovsky, Clemens and Soeda all drop behind A win in the first round in Manchester could take him up to 221.
Jamie is defending 6 points from Felixtowe 2006, but still manages to advance one place to 246 as Soeda, Snobel and Josh drop behind him. A first round win in Manchester woudl take him up to 242.
Jonnie was defending 5 points from Manchester 06. As Motomura, Istomin and Josh drop behind him, he actually starts the week unchanged at 267.
Alan re- appears at the bottom of the table, up 8 as players drop behind him.

Chardy qualifies in Amersfoort and advances to just behind Jamie Fischer reached the final Qualies round in Stuttgartt, so advances, but was then knocked out. Also knocked out of qualies were Decoud, Gonzalez, Brands, Clemens and Ledovskikh.
I don't think Bethan's around this week, so I'll be back tomorrow with who the threats are - unless we hear from her first!
