Race to the World Tour Finals
Post-Shanghai Edition
Last year it was basically over by this point. Do we have any more drama this year?
In -- cut is at 4550 right now
Anil Mehul -- 11340
Antonin Iglar -- 9470
Girish Girsh -- 7770
Bjorn Benda -- 7630
Gustavo Caratti -- 6275
It appears that the only drama left is for the #3 spot ... and unless Benda can repeat his improbable Paris title from last year, not even that.
Probable
Pierce Gaskell -- 4440
Elias Trulsen -- 3550
Gaskell is probably upwards of 99% chance right now, and will almost certainly be official before Paris. The last two spots likely go down to the final week.
Contenders
Mugur Kinczllers -- 3460
------------------------
Thiago Herrera -- 3230
It really boils down to a three-man race for two spots. There's no good reason to think Thiago Herrera is likely to get back in, but all he would need is one good tournament. It's far too close for Trulsen and Kinczllers to rest on their laurels or relax at all.
Long Shots
Marcelo Herrera -- 3030
Perry Mockler -- 2715
Afanasy Bereznity -- 2675
Cestmir Marcek -- 2555
Marcelo Herrera is fading and none of the others here really have a chance anymore. Bereznity's early loss in Shanghai doomed him, otherwhise he might still have an outside chance.
