Looks like Cam has withdrawn from Tokyo - hes been replaced by a 9th seed in the draw showing on TA.

Shame for Cam, no doubt not recovered from the Covid mentioned elsewhere enough to enter the country perhaps ?

This run to the Turin finals isnt going to plan. Maybe he can try a qualies wild card for Giron or Florence next week unless there is a main draw left?

 According to his Instagram he does not have any symptoms but failed a test and has to now follow the South Korean isolation period.

 Albot is a tough campaigner, so solid enough for Dan.

 Made all the more difficult that only top 7 will actually qualify if Djokovic maintains a place in Top 20 of the race. This is confirmed on ATP website. There have to be question marks over Nadal and Zverev participating but it is still an extremely tall order for Cam.

 Indeed its hard to see it - hes not planning on playing next week currently so it looks like Stockholm, Vienna and Paris - which gives him a max of 1750 points and, being frank, thats hard to see. 

Hes 505 points behind FAA who is 7th and weve got to assume the others will pick up points. Feels like Cam has to win both Paris and Vienna to make it .
