 I know I've done it before - it was a Pivot table - see if I can remember

 But no players will be dropping any points for the remainder of the year ( unless improved on ). So can't lose their ranking unless say voluntarily due to retirement.

Had a discussion about this with OER about a year ago - they answer questions quickly, and comprehensively. If a player stops playing the points linger on until they expire - but if they "retire" from the WTA all the points come off straight away. The "retirement" option only used to be used by top players but is now more general.

So it will depend on what players decide to do. I think there is a similar situation in the ATP.

 Thanks SB - interesting no team is on 10 players, so no one on the cusp at the moment. Kazakhstan and Mexico could of course add a player and join the happy party if they can get someone else ranked!

 Great to see nations like Syria with a world ranked player!
