Charlie won his 3rd v 4th place match

Won the first set and then the other lad retired

Well done to him (although I agree with Tennis observer, there's a big difference between a bit of vim and pep on the court and ridiculous am-dram)

3rd place is good in this standard of competition, and i think he entered the event as the 6th ranked of the 8 taking part, so good week for him.

dont imagine Charlie has a wildcard into Vienna or Basel?!

By my calculation Charlie's win today will take him above Jan Kumstat into a career high 8th place, nearly 300 points above 11th - which is good for his chances of claiming better junior accelerator spots next year. Mika should move up 1 spot to 7

Have anyone been able to find exact point distribution for this event?

Last year 1st place was 750p, this year it says 850p, but can't find detailed info anywhere

Hi - page 2 of this thread, Davidc posted a link to a document - in it is the rankings table, its Clause 7 of the document. Hope that helps

Well done, Charlie, who wins 6-3 7-6.

So all 4 players do have a 1-1 record and Charlie plays Mrva in a winner takes all match. Charlie and Mrva have the best sets records at 3-2 and, from my maths, whoever wins will top the group, regardless of score line.

So both Brits have 1 all records and face winner take all final round robin matches for a semi place.
FWIW, will H2H not apply to determine the winner in Charlie's group? If so, the winner of Charlie's match would only top the group if the other winner is the player they beat earlier.
ah, yeah, probably - the ITF site doesnt seem to show the tie break rules but I guess that is what typically works in other similar events, so fair call - I guess the main thing will be getting a win and just getting through to the semis, for both Charlie and Mika. Let the semis look after themselves.
