They hadn't even entered my mind. Just means he's bugger all successful in the minor tournaments lately.
He's played only 11 tournaments this year. Lost in the final of 2 of them.

Karma is a b1tch. Go Cats!
Well done to Alex, didn’t watch any of the tournament but sounds like he played very well to beat some of the players he defeated, good on him!

Some excellent results today. Both Barty and millman into the semis in Tokyo.

Saw the last 5 games of the Barty match. Served and held serve well. took a 10 min game, but she finally got the break at 4-4 all in the last.

Millman defeats Opelka 6-3 7-6 
About time he had a good draw! He's been unlucky this year mostly and he has made the most of it this week. Crucial points as well. Goon on him. Now for ash to win.Millman defeats Opelka 6-3 7-6

Handy points for Millman after losing the US open ones from last year. Qualifying to the final. Unlucky that Djokovic is playing this tournament.

Millman should be ranked 58 after this tournament which will be good (even higher if he wins, not likely). I feel like he has had some crap draws this year in first rounds of big tournaments but he had quite a bit of luck last year at the US open so it all evens out in the end I suppose. A long as he makes the most of good draws and good patches in form he should be able to maintain a ranking of around 50 IMO which is good for him I think.

Or another way to look at it is lucky he avoided Djokovic until the final given he's playing the tournament.

FFS...
Interesting match. Bertens tightened up when serving for the match.
They've both saved match points now. Both while returning as well.
Crikey there was absolutely nothing in that
And somehow Ash has done it

Never mind. Great fight back.
Very enjoyable 3 set. Both saved match points, Barty breaking back at 4-5. Ash played reqlly well in the opening set and then berten lifted. Barty made a lot of UE in the 3rd set, but cut those right down at the end.

Ash will be at least 1000 points clear on Top
Year End No.1 is just about there

I only discovered today ash is also ranked #1 in doubles. She will lose that ranking next week, but still an incredible effort to be ranked #1 simultaneously in both singles and doubles. Not many players in the last 15 years have achieved that. Maybe hingis was the last player to do it?
Serena definitely did it

just had a look at the live rankings, barty didnt play this tournament last year so massive upside, gaining 1000 points if she wins this week as that will help counter the points she loses for not defending zhuhai this year.
It's been a huge week for Barty rankings wise, especially with Pliskova losing in the first round. Has opened up a fair gap between the 2. My guess is ash won't play again til schenzen, but Pliskova will probably play the kremlin cup.
