Jodie and Katie B the only two ranked players still in the main/qualifying lists, with a few in the alts list in Italy (headed by Eden at A22), ot ecpecting any of them to stay in though.

Sure enough Boulter has now withdrawn.

Updated mens list is below - still a few planning to play until close to Xmas

Men

Monastir - Oscar Weightman, Jack Gibbens, Max Andrews and Patrick Foley (qualies)
Antalya- Paul Jubb (Q3) and Billy Harris (qualies)

Ying Hou and Dan Cox on alts list

Mens lists above still holding up for next week.

Madadman · Top national player

Paul Jubb looks to be a DA now.

I didn't realise the W25 was indoor hard - that's good. 2 players withdrew from the main draw yesterday, and I assume that they haven't updated the main draw to add 2 extra players into it, so I think Jodie is currently the 1st alt and will get in if one of the two SE spots aren't used (or with another MD withdrawal of course). Another very strong field for the level though, and a few interesting players involved.

Emilie the only GB inside the top 75 alts, but she'll be the 12th alt (once updated), so probably unlikely she'll get in.

Edit - although looking at Jodie's Instagram, it would appear that her year is over as there are a couple of references.

Yep, Jodie has ended her season. Would have got into the W25 fairly comfortably in the end, but she withdrew.

Once updated, I believe Emilie is 4th alt, 2nd if no SEs are used.

Just beat me to it, Ace.
Only other entry I can see anywhere on the women's lists is Sally Pethybridge at Q20 in Monastir - but she has been in that position before and not played.
She's also on the alt list with Iman Khan for the following week, and they are the only two signed up for Christmas week !

In mens

Monastir - Weightman, Andrews and Gibbens are all in the qualies list still at Q21,24, and 25 respectively. Thursfield is at Alt 4

Antalya - Jubb is main draw still, Harris at Q7 and Ying Hou at Q45; Dan Cox is alt 8, Luka Petrovic apparenty coming over from the US (really?) at alt 13 and Evan Kennedy alt 55 and Thomas Linley at alt 91.

Suspect Antalya will whittle down to Jubby and Billy Harris and possibly Dan Cox will get in as well, to qualies

Madadman · Top national player

Cox is now into the Q list in Turkey. So should be in the draw later today. Billy is up to Q4 so should be one of the top seeds.

Madadman · Top national player

In Monastir Andrews has withdrawn and Thursfield has made the Q list.

emmsie69 · ATP level

Women's qualifying draws are out for this week - and as expected no Brits at all.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Blu Baker served for the match at 6-5 in the third in the UTR tournament in the States, but ending up losing 5-7 :(
