500s Week

Zarco and Zakirov both made it to the semis at Vienna, while Dircx made the final in the much weaker Swiss Indoors field ... where he was upset for Phillipe Besson. Santos also played, but lost in the second round. Dircx was the big winner here, Kronecker the loser as he was idle, as were about half of the remaining hopefuls. Meanwhile, Prakash Mooljee got his second win this year over Kaspar and first ever indoors in four attempts, 7-5, 3-6, 7-6(2) in the Vienna final. Of course I would have played the other event if I knew he was going to enter here. Elsewhere, Sushant Chiba added dual titles in Jakarta tier-4. The week couldn't have gone better for us.

Zarco is now in, and Janin will be as soon as he shows up for his first match in Paris. Dircx now holds the keys to the last spot, but still needs to finish well.
