I hadnt seen theyd fallen a place and dropped yet again. Freefall! Can we see a time when it will stop falling?

OER has them up 10-15 places at the moment - Katie S is the only one who can score this week.

Sam can pick up a few points still, but unlikely to gain more than a few places unless she reaches at least the semifinal. She still has some 1-pointers in her total.
Not that it will make a lot of difference to the overall women's total though.

This time next year it will be much better. Too many players who could/should be quite a bit higher then.

I think my maths is correct but I have our mens average as 200.7 according to live rankings, one more win for liam will take us under 200 again. Could have miscalculated that!

No, looks good. I made it 200.6 last night from OER.

Would be the first time back under 200 since Aljaz no longer counted after fhe end of 2017. It will be the best since then, whatever.

Apologies for the late mens table. Still a bit "under the weather" but hope to have mens out tomorrow disbelief

No worries, strongbow, get well soon!

I make it the win for Liam in Knoxville qf takes the average to 199.6 ! Hurrah!

Ah, that was a pleasant surprise to actually see a slight mprovenent in our women's average.

I'd provisionally been taking another net 50 points off Maia for her Shrewsbury 25K titke last year. But Steven had these points due off a week too early. Can't get the staff these days

( although I would put up with him trying again! )

The bad news now though is that Maia will drop 50 points next week.

Next week is looking glum (-27 at ptresent) unless Naiktha can do someting spectacular - not holding my breath. They have a 300 point gap to SVK - so should be safe.

Well Naiktha is trying. +32 on the week so far against Maia's -58. Will be good if Katie B can finally pick up a few wins again to announce she's back.. and Mandy has a chance next week to get the points that will bring her back into the GB top 10.
