IF Henry and Harri managed to take the title here - big if, I know- then Henry would be just 65 points off top spot in the world rankings. It doesnt look like he has any points due to fall throughW and Miami, whereas Arevalo and Pavic lose 90 over the next 5 weeks.

Henry is in a genuine tussle for top spot from here through IW and Miami

Come on Henry and Harri - going to support them today against Joe and Neal, although glad to see Joe and Neal getting some form of- a good week for them could see them into the Race top 8.

Everyone got a lot to play for!

 Henry and Harri will actually have more points to come off over the IW and Miami 4 weeks than Arevalo and Pavic assuming they all play IW and Miami. That is because Henry played neither of these last year and Harri just played Miami, so they will have to drop bottom existing counters in to let in the mandatory IW and Miami scores.

So, Arevalo and Pavic will each be due to drop 90 + 90 = 180. Henry will be due to drop 150 + 175 = 325. Harri will be due to drop 175 + 0 = 175.

Incidentally after Miami, Henry and Harri will be on the same total ranking score, having teamed up after Miami last year. Harri might rank ahead since Henry played 2 additional non scoring tournaments with other partners. I'm not sure though and it only becomes really interesting if and when they reach WR 1/2. Henry will still be ahead of Harri's points after IW.

And it could still be looking very good for both on that front if they have good IW and / or Miami, especially if they go on to win the title here.

PS Henry needs to play a couple of events with someone else then! Evo, or Cam, what are up to at the start of the clay season?

 As I edited in, Henry will still be ahead of Harri on points after IW. So if he can get ahead of Arevalo and Pavic too he could be WR 1 on his own some post IW. It's after Miami that they will have the same points total.
