The teams ranked 6-11 in the live race plus the 13th placed pair are the 7 teams still left in this week with Lammons/Withrow overtaking Jamie & Mike moving into 8th as they are already in the final in Vienna. None of the teams can move into top 7 this week.

 those semis in basle and Vienna are stacked and make for some big matches in the race. Big day in doubles. 

 The doubles battle will last through Paris and quite likely Metz and Sofia, all the contending pairs go in the next two weeks also.

Jamie and Mike are currently 412 points behind ATP finals qualification and will be 530 points behind if Joe & Rajeev win the title in Vienna and there is 1250 points to play for. Realistically they need to reach at least the final in Paris to stay in the hunt.

Re ATP Finals qualification, I wonder if Kubler will be fit to play with Hijikata. Hasnt played since retiring at the US Open.

I had not noticed that. Then again Hijikata has been playing Australian challengers including next week but is due to play doubles only in Sofia (11th alt for singles but did not enter qualifying) which would seem like a bizzare move to travel all that way just for that so they must still be a possibility at least?
