Gonzo now ahead of Andy...until he wins later tonight

Have I got this right - Gonzo is already ahead, Roddick will go ahead if he beats Gonzo in the semi, but Andy is assured of third place?

I suspect Fed's point isn't 100, but 107(100 for Toronto and 7 for R2 of Cincinnati) which leaves Andy behind(105).

I think the one who will be laughing is Fed coz though he lost to Murray,he is still ahead of Murray and knocked Andy out of the top 3 standings

I think you have to get to the third round at least (or maybe even further) for points to be counted.

So murray still in the top 3, with him not playing new haven, do other players have a chance to finish in the top 3 even though the winner gets 50pts

Duckboy beat Gonzo in straight sets in the Cincy SFs, so having lost one place when he lost and Gonzo won in the QFs, Andy moves down another place as Roddick overtakes him. However, with Tursunov now having withdrawn from New Haven and only 50 USOS points on offer for the winner there, he won't go any lower than 3rd.

This means that Andy will collect a US$ 3750 bonus on top of the usual prize money if he goes out in R1 of the USO, rising to a bonus of US$ 250,000 if he wins the USO. Helps to pay for Brad ...

124 Gonzalez (12 for Indianapolis QF, 22 for LA SF, 45 for Toronto SF, 45 for Cincy QF)
117* Roddick (35 for Indianapolis Final, 12 for LA QF, 70 for Cincy Final)
105 Murray (35 for Washington Final, 45 for Toronto SF, 25 for Cincy QF)
100 Federer (100 for winning Toronto)
72 Tursunov (35 for LA Final, 22 for Washington SF, 15 for Toronto R3)
70* Ferrero (70 for Cincy Final)
70 Gasquet (70 for Toronto Final)
65 Haas (50 for winning LA, 15 for Cincy R3)

Nobody else has more than 60 points and the other two players who had 50 at the start of the week (Blake and Clément) went out of Cincy in R1/R2.

Points for Cincy: 15 for R3, 25 for QF, 45 for SF, 70 for RU, 100 for Champion.

Points for New Haven: 12 for QF, 22 for SF, 35 for Final, 50 for Champion.

Final standing:

1. Roddick
2. Gonzalez
3. Murray

4. Tursunov
5. Haas

I think Fed drops out of the reckoning because of a rule that they have to have played in (and got to a certain stage in) 2 tournaments in the series. Andy put paid to that one for him!
