... and he then withdrew from the Qatar qualifying draw on 2nd March.
He had Portugal as a higher priority than Qatar so must have been outside the Portugal qualifying list on 27th February when still entered for both.

The fourth seeds did for the Swiss second seeds in three.
Very good for Jack I don't know whether allowing the singles automatic entry withdrawal in favour of Qatar was a slight screw up ( there are sometimes lessons to be learned about the way these things work ) but he has certainly still made something of the week. All the best for the final.
All matches postponed today (Saturday) till tomorrow.
