Naomi osaka has given a w/o, so guess who has the rod laver slot? Marcus of course!

So with Cam's loss we have no singles players left and we end Friday on 14 wins with 9 doubles pairs left.

4 in men's doubles, with 2 so far through to the L16 and the other 2 playing on Saturday.
1 in women's doubles, playing to reach the L16 on Saturday.
4 in mixed doubles, with 2 so far through to the L16 and the other 2 playing on Saturday.

 So now 3 mens doubles left in the round of 16; mixed per above still. 7 pairs still alive though so plenty of opportunities for more wins to come, hopefully.

I make that a maximum of 8 mens doubles and ten mixed wins, so potentially still a long way to go.

 Which takes us to a max of 33 - and my vote of 29 looks very precarious! Hard to see us getting 18 more wins!

 My rough prediction based on odds and seeding would be a further 8 wins making 22 in total.

 We're on 15 just now. 23 would be a bit closer to any 25 prediction

 Are you sure it isnt 13 more mixed wins? 

we have four pairs left - each in separate quarters. To reach the 4 semis positions would be 3 wins plus 2 wins plus 3 wins plus 2 wins for the four pairs. That is 10. Then there would be wins in the two semis and a final win taking us to 13. 

Unless Im tired and missing something, in which case I apologise. But if that is correct it is 21 more possible wins overall and thus 36 max. Which is still unlikely but protects my 29 prediction a little more!

No, I'm not sure - I did it quickly looking at the draw on a small screen !

 Ha. yep, I make it 13 mixed and 8 mens, so 21 more. But suspect the total Telstar suggests is likely to be more realistic - and in line with history as well. 

16 and 17 Luke+ and Neal+ in MD R3
