(*)  35th in the race as of yesterday
(**)  third in the race

Why do you have Qureshi & Rojer as WR 4 when they have a combined ranking of 15? Also Marray & Fleming are WR 46.

Because, inexplicably ( confuse ), I mixed & matched rankings & race positions within the "equation":  Qureshi & Rojer were fourth in the race when I started the thread on Saturday & I presume my eye was distracted by their also being seeded fourth in this tournament.  In the case of Colin & Jonny, again, their combined ranking was 46th on Saturday & I simply forgot to check & amend it while I was looking up that of Peya & Soares. wink  Alles klar?  I've now made the necessary corrections.

Really happy for Jonny, who seems to have not done that well recently. He needs all the points he can get before Wimby.

Not including this week Jonny has amassed 1390 points since Wimbledon. Even without anything else that would put him at WR 54 he should still have a pretty decent ranking after Wimbledon whatever happens.

Colin and Jonny lost the first set 7-6(5)

Annoyingly they led *5-3, 30-0 but couldn't see it out.
