Top Ten Rankings Update

1. Girish Girsh(SRI, 27) -- 13,020

Still a fairly comfortable lead, but it looks like Iglar's got his number again which makes stuff a little more tense. A little over two months for him in the top spot now.

2. Anil Mehul(SRI, 30) -- 10,615

Both Girsh and Iglar have had better seasons overall - but it's Mehul who owns 2 Slam titles this year.

3. Antonin Iglar(CZE, 29) -- 10,540

Losing again in the USO final has to be bitterly disappointing. We'll see if he has to wherewithal to rise again for Shanghai and beyond.

4. Gustavo Caratti(ARG, 27) -- 9,300

Continues to creep up and is now a legitimate part of what has to be considered the Big 4. The gap behind him is enormous, and he waits for one of the others to slip up.

5. Pierce Gaskell(USA, 30) -- 4,900

6. Mugur Kinczllers(ITA, 27) -- 4,785

Kinczllers and Gaskell continue their gradual jockey for position here. It doesn't really matter much in the grand scheme of things - clearly neither of them is going to threaten the top players.

7. Bjorn Benda(DEU, 32) -- 4,690

A surprise USO quarterfinal shows Benda is still just good enough to be occasionally relevant off of clay.

8. Elias Trulsen(SWE, 27) -- 3,855

Aside from the Wimbledon final, he's just sort of floating along in a disappointing year.

9. Thiago Herrera(PER, 29) -- 3,440

Still keeping his head above the packed fray behind him.

10. Garreth McCuskey(USA, 26) -- 2,985

The latest to poke his head in, McCuskey has lots of competition. Poilblan, A. Herrera, and Federer are all just 100 or so points back.
