Do so hope that doesn't mean that Ryan is injured again - could be that, having lost in R1 in singles, it doesn't financially make much sense to hang around for a lot more days in doubles - hoping it's that.....

One more win - I think.

Started the week on 67pts live, so 15pts for winning would just get Ali into the top 500, although the cut off is currently 81pts.

Well done Ali. Well selected events, he might be 5th seed but hes easily good enough to win this event and vulturing is nothing to be sniffed at, why not when you need to get your ranking up. Its just playing the system.
