RE: Andy's Competitors week 30
Permalink  

The Table is updated.


Tursunov and Verdasco advance ahead of Andy. Djokovic's match was interrupted, and concludes today.


Chela, Youzhny, Moya and Calleri advance behind Andy. He'll be very lucky not to have one of them overtake before Monday


Volandri  advances ahead of Tim, Wawrinka and Mayer overtake, turning what was looking to be a good week into a bad one.


None of Any's competitors were eliminated on Friday. For Tim and Greg, Melzer and Goldstein went out.


The action is now over for Greg No- one else can overtake, and he ends the week where he started it, the world number 70.  Tim still needs to worry about Sanguinetti, who overtakes if he wins his Challenger in Recanati.


For Andy, what started out a great week with all the close competitors going out early, has become a very nervous weekend.


Today, Chela can overtake if he beats Youzhny in Kitzbuhel.


Tomorrow, Youzhny can overtake if he wins the tournament.


So, the ideal result for Andy is for Youzhny to win today, then lose against Calleri or Verdasco tomorrow.


Pessimists post:


Andy to drop two places to go back to where he started the week, at 36th


Tim to drop one more place to end up two down, at 65th.


Optimists post:


Andy to stay two up on the week at 34th, Tim to stay one down at 64th.

Youznhy won that next game, then Chela won four on the trot. 6-2 Chela. One set away from knocking Andy down to 35th.

the lowest andy can drop is to 35 right not 36 as you said earlier? Cos one of youznhy or chela have to lose and therefore they cant overtake him BOTH so whatever happens its a rise, right?

No - you were right the first time. Moya would only make it to 885 points:
830-120+175 =885.  I'd somhow imagined a scenario where Chela wins this one, then Youzhny wins the final.


Whatever, we still need Youznhy to win today and lose tomorrow, so that Andy can go up to 34th on Monday.

No just a stuck scoreboard.  The match comes up as a result: Chela bt  Youznhy 6-2 4-6 6-4


andy's back down to 35. Which I think is as bad as it can now get.

And Calleri also wins

Lets hope he looses tomorrow.

On the positive side: Andy won't drop places compared to last week.

Table Updated.


Djokovic heads off the top into the top 25.


Tursunov and Chela advance ahead of Andy


Calleri advances behind him, but can't overtake this week.


Wawrinka and Mayer advance ahead of Tim.


Sanguinetti  advances behind Tim to the final in Recanati.


Verdasco, Youzhny, Moya, Volandri, Bracciali go out.


 


Andy is now safe on 35 - one up from the start of the week - equals his highest ranking.


Tim can be overtaken by Sanguinetti if he wins the Recanati Challenger He's currently 64 - one down on the week. If Sanguinetti wins, he'll be 65th - two down.


Greg is safe at 70th - no change on the week.


 


So focus all pins on Italy on the Recanati Challenger. We want Simone Bolelli, 4th seed, to beat Davide Sanguinetti.

MTF are reporting that Sanguinetti beat Bolelli in the Recanati Challenger.


Not a good week for Tim. He ends up two down at 65, having had the chance of being three up.


Bethan, look what happens when you go away and leave us!
