 Don't you have to be out for 6 months continuously to have one? Was he out that long?

Not sure....

 I think because he played DC and Dubai (both in Feb) he just missed out on PR as he didn't play after USO.

 He played in Barcelona in April, and Indian Wells and Miami in March

 Yes, but those were after so wouldn't affect the 6 months or near 6 months that Blue_Belle is talking about

 Correct. He played in Feb so didn't qualify for the PR from USO to Feb period as it was too short. He then further played in March and April and now in June so unless he stops playing for the rest of the year as from today, still won't get a PR, unless he plays in January. Since PR is a continous 6 months or more out period to qualify for it.

 Disappointing. Had hoped for better than that against the WR 151.From the bits I saw Max was a puppet on a string.

And Felix follows him out of the exit door after putting up a bit more of a fight against the 23rd seed:

L128:  (23) Rafael Jódar (ESP) WR 26 defeated (WC) Felix Gill WR 220 by 3, 3 & 5

Shame for Felix with regards to the draw, he was actually playing some great tennis. Definitely think he has a lot more potential to go further up the rankings. Nice groundies, good leftie serve, strong slicing on the backhand side. Some wild errors here and there, but showed a lot of grit.

Saw parts of Basing's march at the very beginning, his forehand looked really awkward.

Thought Felix played a very good third set, Jodar played a superb final game to get the break to win but Felix didn't do a lot wrong.

Cam has started and is up an early break at 3-1*.
