Worried about Giles form, hes not had a good few months, unless Im forgetting something
His best week of the year was on Eastbourne grass at the end of June when he beat 3 top 100 playes ( beat Cazaux WR 98 in QR1 then as a LL he beat Navone WR 32 in straight sets before losing to Cobolli WR 49 in 3 sets ). That week took him up to close to the top 300 in the rankings.
Fallen back since then as he wasn't seen again until the end of October and yes it generally hasn't gone well since his return. Hopefully he'll get back to a better level again in the new year.

On the face of it the draw has certainly opened up.
Emile is the top seed into the QF. The only other seed still in is the 8th seed and there are 4 qualifiers. If Emile wins his QF he will face the winner of 2 of these qualifiers in the SF ( though one of these did beat Giles ).
