2054 Final WTC Rankings

1. Sri Lanka -- 2803
2. United States -- 2451
3. Spain -- 2244
4. Argentina -- 2168
5. Germany -- 2078
6. Czech Republic -- 2059
7. Croatia -- 2053
8. France -- 1970
9. Italy -- 1936
10. The Netherlands -- 1881

It's generally highly-competitive right now, but back-to-back titles and four out of five gives Sri Lanka a dominant lead. That belies the fact that is has not been easy; we've been just good enough I'm not sure how much longer that lasts as Mooljee's skills deteriorate on the other side of 30. Next year we've got a bit of a tough draw in Group 4: Czech Republic(6th), France(8th), Sweden(19th). We should get through but the first two will not be gimmies ... if Kaspar plays.

Casablanca Cup

This seems as good a place as any to put this. The last big tournament of the juniors'(JGA) takes place the same week as the WTC Playoffs. Although not with his normal partner, Sushant Chiba reached the final in doubles, and the semifinals in singles. There he ran into Edleman and didn't win a game. He was exhausted by that point, as this was his third tournament in five weeks. It was rather stunning that he got that far. The American was challenged in the final by (3) Chalerm Pracuab, but won it 7-5, 6-4.
