That is a blow- just Cam left and no top spots for Wes and Neal individually or in the race.

Play seems to have been stopped with Neal and Wes down 7-6 5-4 and on the edge of a disappointing loss. Hopefully the break will help!

Rain delay with Neal serving at 4-5 30-30 2nd set. Unfortunate timing with them then having to come out and win 2 of the next 3 points to stay in the match.

 Singles and doubles its been a strange event for any form to come through. Feels like an old style WTA event ! I like upsets but a bit more predictability isnt a bad thing !

L16:  Rinky Hijikata (AUS) & Cameron Norrie UNR (35+0) defeated (3) Rajeev Ram (USA) & Joe Salisbury CR 11 (5+6) by 4-6 7-6(4) [11-9]     

Thinking about this result a bit, this could have a negative implication for Rinky. He really needs Joe and Rajeev to finish in the top 7 in the race otherwise himself and Kubler will not qualify for the tour finals.

 That struck me also , although Joe and Rajeev are nearly 500 points clear in 7th from a little cluster of pairs in 8th through 10th. 

we need Jamie and Michael to step up, have some good events and take 7th, pushing Joe to 8th!

If Bopanna and Ebden win their semi as they look like they will , Joe will fall to 8th in the rankings

After today's semis the ATP site shows Bopanna and Ebdon at third in the race, behind Neal and Wesley in second. Joe and Rajeev are 7th.
