Top 250


Being top 250 for Wimbledon is obviously a big deal for many players so they can be considered for a WC for the event and the prize money that even an appearance will bring.  Its certainly a worthy goal for many of our players.  If you only consider the points they have from post Nottingham(wk 1) last year...............ie the only ones in the bag towards this years total, the top ten changes quite a bit.  The bulk of Dan Evans points have come after then so, he has already qualified.  Someone like Ed Corrie falls right back as a large chunk of his will be came early on last year.

185 points is a rough guide that will get a player to the 250 mark.  James Ward and Dan Cox look fairly safe bets to make the mark, it would be nice to think that another could maybe join them?

The top 10 of those who may need a wild card currently reads like this;

Pts

270 - Dan Evans

185 - Approx Top 250

171 - James Ward

155 - Dan Cox

 90 - David Rice

 80 - Marcus Willis

 80 - Ollie Golding

 75 - Kyle Edmunds

 73 - Alex Ward

 59 - Ed Corrie

 48- Dan Smethurst

At least two Brits will be making the top 250 for Wimbledon now (though Dan Evans may of course not need a wild card at all if he has any more weeks like the last one!)  Dan Cox still looks odds on, I still think there'll be at least one other that'll come from the pack.  

Pts

386 - Dan Evans

211 - James Ward

185 - Approx Top 250

163 - Dan Cox

120 - David Rice

103 - Kyle Edmunds

98 - Ollie Golding

96- Dan Smethurst

84 - Marcus Willis

74 - Ed Corrie

73 - Alex Ward

Does a player have to be in the top 250 or can someone like Kyle or Oli for example be given a WC if they are outside the top 250?

It's a general guide not a strict rule and exceptions are frequently made for young players such as Oli (2012) and Kyle (2013).

Do I take it that the new figure for Dan Evans of 290 doesn't include the 96 points scored last week ? He has only gone up 20 since Dec 31st which I take to be 12 from Doha and 8 from AO qualies.

Oh. And great stats. Will be interestin to follow this in the build up to Wimbledon over the next few months.

 Thanks, I thought that was the case but I wasn't quite sure.

Lets hope those that do get wildcards, make at the very least the 2nd week, god forbid they lose to someone higher ranked than them evileye

 96pts added for Dan, all amended.

(Never trust an idiot to do these things ha!)

Evans is a cert, as is Ward IMO. Cox has a very good chance & I'd really like to see Rice in the MD at Wimbledon. Also I'd expect Oli or Kyle to get a WC

No mention of the girls.

Joko, Hev, Tara, Naomi and Sam fall into the category. Jade might get there.

 Be really interested to see a similar ranking points table for the girls - any of the statisticians on the board up for producing it?

Easy enough to extract the totals from the best 16 lists. I've excluded points due off up to and including 9 June and added back enough of their current non-counters due off after that date to give them 16 scores:

727 Laura
426 JoKo
343 Hev
230 Naomi

224 = current WR 250 (the new points system means this figure is likely to drop gradually over the year)

188 Sam
181 Tara
126 Jade

The same order as the rankings apart from Tara dropping two places. The others have less than 100 points on this basis so far.

Thanks Steven.  Nice to see Naomi the right side of the line.  Hopefully not too many points coming off between now and Wimby.

Just for clarification, the points here only include points added from 16/06/13, i.e. they already allow for points due to come off before then.

By the way, I had been keeping a separate count and was nearly going to post an update. Shhh saved me the bother :)

I know some don't like the mention of his name, but as of last Monday, I had Brydan in there on 78 points ( the only minor difference I have for these listed is to have Marcus 2 more on 86 points ).
