L32: Dan Evans WR 767 v Seydou Diallo (MLI) WR 1477 (CH 1424 Jun 2014)
L32: Marcus Walters WR 1856 (CH 1838 last week) v Ryan Agar (AUS) WR 738 (CH 647 Jul 2014)
L32: Joe Salisbury WR 774 v (Q) Mazen Osama (EGY) WR 1283 (CH 473 May 2014)
Bad luck for Joe having drawn a Qualifier. There were only 9 entries into qualies so only one match was needed and all the others were given "Byes" straight into the MD. Mazen Osama was the only player in the Qualies with a ranking.
Bob: I don't know where you took your rankings from, but they don't accord with those given on the ATP site, so I've amended them where appropriate!

Took the rankings from the ITF site. Perhaps they hadn't updated from last week.
Yes, the ITF site generally has quite a time lag after the ATP and WTA sites update their rankings, I think plenty folk have been caught by that, and that was always the likely explanation if the rankings close.
I'd always be wary of the ITF's take on the rankings on Mondays. I think they've generally caught up by Tueday.

I'd agree with that, Indy. The ITF is very slow to update the players' rankings: I made the self-same mistake myself last week with the girls in Cagnes & Fukuoka!
