I see Krajicek is the new number one as Neal falls to equal 2

Not sure how long he'll stay there, as he & Dodig lost to Mektic & Pavic (4 & 2) in the Eastbourne final earlier.  

---

 That is the live ranking after the final was played so he goes into Wimbledon as 1

In the immediate short term, yes, with no-one dropping any points on Monday, Krajicek will still add 150 final points ( net just 60 though ). So he will move to 150 points ahead of Neal and Wesley on Monday.

I think though that the live ranking points next week will start dead level for Wimbledon. Krajicek has a full set of counters so would appear to have to drop 150 points ( his then lowest non mandatory counter ) to let Wimbledon in, whereas Neal and Wesley don't have to drop anything.

Leaves Krajicek, Skupski and Koolhof all on 6,820 live points for Wimbledon. Who will go furthest there? Let's indeed hope that Krajicek will be #1 for not very much longer

 Ah, so SC was onto something, but perhaps not quite as she meant her post!! 

Prescient, maybe?

Thanks Indy

I havent seen the draw, is Krajicek and Dodig the 2nd seeded pair, so that would be some tasty final - top spot on the line and a Slam title?!

---

Yes.

 Nick has a wrist ligament injury and pulled out.

The "official" announcement.  Obviously too soon to know who'll replace him & Kokkinakis.

 In the latest live rankings Neal and Wesley are indeed level with Krajicek on 6820 points. And actually Neal and Wesley are shown ahead as the two joint #1s, presumably because of having played less tournaments.
