Julian Cash goes top of the mens table, Emily Appleton still leads the womens. They go again in two weeks time and there are 4 events plus the Finals week left.

Looks like it's now an 11 week series going by the website. www.ukproleague.com/calendar

Week 5 - 12th to 18th July
Week 6 - 23rd to 29th August
Week 7 - 13th to 19th September
Week 8 - 27th September to 3rd October
Week 9 - 25th to 31st October
Week 10 - 8th to 14th November
Week 11 - UKPL FINALS WEEK - 6th to 12th December


 Looks like theyve adjusted the calendar again- in essence, the Finals week now moves to week 10 and they lose a week of qualifying events ie just 9 weeks plus finals week now

 Presumably they haven't been able to attract the higher ranked Brits like last year now the tour is almost back to normal. I rather doubt Emma will be back to defend her title for one thing.

At the current rate Emma might even make the WTA tour finals rather than the Uk Pro league finals!

Looks like a change in format again. 16 players in 4 pools. Play each in your pool over the first 4 days(1 day off). Then top players in each pool play for 1-4, 2nd in each pool 5-8 etc...

16 players just seems to be on the Mens side not the Womens.

To confirm madadman comments

David Quayle, Miles Groom and Ben Jones will line up alongside Harris in Box A while Giles Hussey, Felix Mischker and Tiarnan Brady will duel it out with Luke Johnson who reached Classic Week of last years UK Pro Series in Box B.
With 16 players competing in the mens draw rather than the usual 12 its Cox, Adam Jones, Ewan Moore and Matthew Rutter in Box C and Hodkin, Houghton, Ying Hou and Liam Hignett in the fourth and final group.
Harris, 26, is the highest-placed contender of the Week 7 line-up and lies just three points behind Cash while the experienced Cox, Houghton and Hodkin remain in hot pursuit.



Cashs Week 6 triumph hauled him up to 51 points but with Harris on 48, Cox on 37 and Houghton and Hodkin on 29 and 28, the stage is set for a pulsating battle in the West Country.

In the womens draw, 12 players feature as Freya Christie, Alice Gillan and Sonay Kartal bid to reel in Appleton at the top of the table.
Appleton romped to victories in Weeks 1, 2 and 4 and despite holding an 18-point lead over Eliz Maloney who beat her in the Week 3 final at the summit, will be eager to rediscover her momentum.

She will line up against Danielle Daley and Jizel Fernandes in Box B while Box A is made up of Christie who lies 20 points below Maloney in third Katarina Stresnakova and Emilia Banos-Gregorians.

Kartal comes into the week as the player in form, however, racking up a crucial 36 points by winning Week 5 and 6 to catapult herself up the standings. She will face off against Gillan and Maddie Brooks in Box C, while its Nadia Rawson, Emma Wilson and Tiffany William who make up the final group.

All eyes will be on whether Kartal can make it a UK Pro League hat-trick and if she channels the spirit of trailblazer Raducanu in New York on Saturday night, you wouldnt bet against her.
