 I think Miami qualifying entry cut-off is next week. So might be in with a shout of making the cut?

 Possible - IW qualies cut off was 151, so right on edge as Miami tends to be fairly similar. One more win would do it for sure!!

Ah that's good news - I had to go out at the end of the second set! Well done Jack!

Up to #8 in the live U21 rankings. Having only turned 20 in December, only 3 ahead of him are actually younger - Alcaraz, Musetti and Rune.

 You confused me there for a moment Indi as I had been looking at the Next Gen race where Jack is up to no 4, with only Alcaraz, Sinner and a Czech called  Lehecka above him.

Any which way you look Jack is comparing pretty well

 I'm not quite sure how it works, does that take into account players who are dropping points this week, as Wild is dropping nearly 250 points and Gerasimov (sp.) 80 points which I think would bring them both beneath Jack?

Yes, the live-tennis site takes account of points due to drop on Monday as well as points so far added for Monday. Wild and Gerasimov are two that Jack  has overtaken. Jack himself has 12 points coming off but has added 30 so far to be up 18 points and 9 places overall to show as :

153 (+9). 391 - 12 + 30 = 409

With Machac out, the Red Baron is still in play in the semis with a qualifier. This feels like a big opportunity for Jack if he can hold it together physically- TA has him as 56 percent favourite of 4 now to win , I guess that is odds on?

Van Rijthoven versus Ritschard of Switzerland; Jack versus Basic.

I think the most likely thing to stop Jack winning the title again this week, if anything does, is sheer exhaustion, he looked pretty tired on court today, which is hardly surprising.

I just watched some bits from the match without knowing the result - really enjoyed it. Interesting to see Jack slap and kiss his bicep when he won - I guess hes feeling gym work hes done paying off? I was worried a little when after breaking in the first game of the third set he missed a shot on the 45th stroke of the rally and fell over (he seems to like a little drama like that) - though it was interesting that after about 30 shots Jack started going for more. I thought maybe Mmoh might start to wear jack down but it hes pretty consistent at the moment. He won the next point with a drop shot pass combo after about 25 shots!

The fatigue is understandable so Im impressed. Biggest concern was how poorly he lost his two service games at the end of the first set - other than those two games though he was clearly the better player

Loses the second in a tie-break, I fear he may have run out of gas.
