Can't celebrate too much but well done to Liam. Two matches from the Top 100.
Not necessarily. Keep an eye on Gojo v Lestienne in Stanford. Lestienne is a set and a break up, but if Gojo turns it round and loses in the final to Kovacevic, plus Monfils reaches his semi (has to beat Djoko though) then Liam can only reach 101
Constant Lestienne rose to the challenge and raced through the last 2 games, so now Liam is safe he wins the tournament

I missed Monfils in my little analysis yesterday. To be honest, I didn't look that far down the live rankings.
Thanks for the 'heads up' and as you say, with Gojo now StopJo for this week, Top 100 confirmed if Liam can take the title.
QF: (ALT) Ryan Peniston WR 260 defeated (Q) Darian King (BAR) WR 570 by 0 & 1

SF: (4) Liam Broady WR 117 vs Leandro Riedi (SUI) WR 165 (CH = 126 in March)
Reidi and Liam have played once before, in Canberra in January this year - Reidi won in 3 tough sets. Reidi's ranking is virtually the same as that match, Liam has improved his ranking
Tennis Abstract makes Reidi a very slight favourite, 53-47, I reckon Liam will win this one. In 3 sets of course. You get a feeling with Liam when he fancies it and I reckon this is one of those weeks
