Out of interest, why are Lloyd and Julian seeded 2? They have a CR of 5, as do Arevalo and Pavic; Lloyd is ranked highest, so shouldnt they be top seeds? Or am I missing something ?!

 Apparently it is fewest tournies played as tie breaker, then combined rankings points, then a random draw. I always thought it was lowest ranked player as the tie breaker! Was it ever that, or did I make it up?! 

Arevalo & Pavic have a CR of 4 

It appears at the bottom of the drawsheet as 4. I think it has always been thus with equals rather than say 2.5 + 2.5.

Wouldn't you just know it, not only the hardest Q place available but in Jake's very short career this will be the FOURTH time he's played Zverev.

While that's a horrible draw for Jake, I hope that being the underdog (by a long way!) means there's no pressure and he can play freely, to the standard we know he's capable of.

It definitely feels like he started struggling as soon as had to begin defending points from his first year on tour and especially in matches he was "supposed" to win (by ranking), so it's more about what's been going on in his head than anything else. But there are signs he's doing better on that front recently. smile

Rotten luck for Jake after qualifying cry

Glad he at least managed to get the 2 wins though, the Ymer match the other night didn't make for pleasant viewing.

Cam playing quite unexpectedly brilliant in your face tennis against Rublev and has already smashed his racket into the court twice after Norrie broke him for the second time .
