Unless you've actually done the calculations, I'd guess not quite that high - based on what you needed to get to a certain ranking last Monday, he'd be up to about 163 and there are 5 Challengers this week c.f. 4 in the same week last year, so for once this year, the points thresholds may go up rather than down.
More importantly, it's great to see Boggo continuing to do so well this autumn - what is also very impressive is that next Monday, he will have one Challenger title, 3 semis and 4 QFs in his ranking, i.e. 8 QFs or better, despite only having been seeded in 4 Challenger main draws in the last 12 months - Cancun last November (out in R1). Wolfsburg in February (reached QFs) and the two Jersey Challenger (one SF, one out in R1), i.e. he has won a title, reached 2 semis and 3 QFs in Challengers in which he wasn't even seeded.
Another mini-milestone Boggo will reach on Monday is that it will be the first time he's been ranked in the top 170 since the Monday after the Austria DC tie, so his ranking will finally have recovered from the effects of being the scapeGOAT and the battering his confidence seemed to take as a result - never mind the fact that (sadly) all the players who have replaced him in DC singles have done even worse, except perhaps Eaton who won a dead rubber (something which Alex managed in AUS a few years back too) but whose performances everywhere else have seen him almost drop out of the top 500
Didn't we have this discussion a couple of weeks ago! Yes I have done the calculations - the likes of Lammer/Soeda dropping big points..could of course be overtaken but looking good at moment

Ah, if that was you, then yes we did, sorry to doubt you! That's even better news then.

it might be worth having a look around adthe.net and justin tv later as maybe it could be shown, esp if the centre ct matches are over fopr the day.
Boggos playing on centre ct tomorrow, which will be the 3rd different ct he's played on here and the centre ct definitely looks different to ct1 so lets hope it doest effect him negatively.
