That SF is a repeat of the SF last week in Las Vegas won by Julian & Henry by 7-6(5) 6-1 on their way to the title.

That was a very close match. Not much in it. A few interesting Chair/line calls but probably both teams had about the same luck with them. I notice in the live rankings they both overtake Jonny Omara

And Jonny's work is done for the week. Henry is now showing as live 86 and Julian as live 87. Now anyone got a feel for the likely sort of CR that will be required to get into the Australian Open?

Somewhere in the mid 60's to 70 should do it and there are always Alts if they wanted to take a punt

I think it will be quite hard for them to get up to 70 in the rankings before year end. Place 70 is currently on 1140. In the live rankings Henry is on 919 and the smallest points on his countable is 16. If they played another 2/3 Challenger 80 tournaments then the most they would increase the points total is by 192. so would be tight if the could do it and involve them winning for another few weeks straight.

Well done guys again

Ben McLachlan has fallen a lot down the rankings. I think Jamie helped start his fall!

I think you mean Luke Bambridge, although I dont think their partnership was as bad as you always made out.
