Race to the World Tour Finals
Post-USO Standings
In
Karl Kaspar - 10,750
Mateo Kaspar - 9,980
Ritwik Dudwadkar - 6,790
Hamal Sbai - 6,745
Dudwadkar slips to a distant third -- and Sbai could well take that from him by year's end. Meanwhile the top spot is very much up for grabs. House Kaspar will fit it out amongst themselves.
Probable
Stuart Pargeter - 5040
Sushant Chiba - 4670
Gregory Mackenzie - 3960
Gilberto Chinaglia - 3315
Pargeter and Chiba should be locks by the end of the Shanghai Masters. Mackenzie is also looking very strong to grind out a spot. Chinaglia now has the edge for the final one ... but he's far from safe.
Contenders
Long Shots
Hugo Cordova - 3045
Kenneth Brasher - 2820
Brian Meikeljohn - 2500
Chad Duncan - 2400
Tristan Allende - 2330
Cordova really needed to not bow out in the third round of his home Slam. Now he's on the outside looking in. Brasher's first Slam semi has forced him into relevance as a long-shot candidate, while Meikeljohn also lost early at the USO and is now facing a bigger mountain. Nobody here inspires me with confidence that they will make a run at it.
