Joe must still be experiencing back problems, as Rajeev is the top seed alongside Horacio Zeballos.

Joe's back issues must be fairly serious/chronic to basically play part time for the most part of the year. Credit that he still achieved the no.1 ranking despite this (alas, it sound a bit Andy-esque in 2016).

Hopefully Koz should be ripe for the picking, for someone ranked where he is he's had a couple of surprisingly heavy defeats in the last couple of months to journeymen pros.

Yes.  All remaining pre-covid points go on Monday for him.  All he is left with will be the 11 he picked up last week in the Challenger plus the 500 he will have for winning the tournament this week. wink

 What is the rule for Kyle wrt to WC's volumes? I am so used to Andy getting WC's wherever he wants them that I have no idea what real players need to deal with? 

Presumably he has an allocation in the next 12 months of PR entries and WC entries that he can take?

That covers off 20 of the 23 points due to drop off this week.

Next match is going to be interesting. Kyle clearly nowhere near up to full speed. Evo not been showing the best of form recently. Kyle has the better of the H2H by 3-0. I think I still fancy Evo to take it, but on this occasion, I hope I am wrong. Sorry Evo.

Think I would prefer an Evo win to try and push for a US open seeding
