This decision doesn't affect his singles PR total of 12 events right? Does he have a separate PR for doubles?

I was hoping that he would get a qualies WC at Miami for the same reasons. The cut off was very low and they ended up giving it to M Zverev who would have made it to the qualies draw without the WC. Nevertheless, if he can get 2 wcs here, it would be great.

After watching the 2nd and 3rd set, it appeared that Kovalik played well in the 2nd set while Sumit had to grind out just to hold his serve which he didn't manage. In the third set, Sumit got back in to the match but Kovalik was in his zone. That early break in the 3rd set was enough as he didn't al...

We don't need to look elsewhere to get examples. Bedene faced a LL after winning R1 at Dubai against Yuki. So you never know these days, a player might just withdraw. Also, the winner of R1 goes in with 3 matches. Finally, Sumit will also be aware that Prajnesh has beaten Basilashvili at Indian Well...

Thanks Sameer.

That was a good hold in the 8th game by Sumit to get himself ahead. If he wins tomorrow, he will face a qualifier in R1. Will be a game of contrasts as his French opponent is a tall bloke at 6'5 and will rely on his serve.

Match has started. Following the scores on the atptour site since couldn't get a stream. Sumit broke back to make it 1-1 but got broken again. 1-2 now with opponent to serve

What explains the good runs Somdev, Yuki and Prajnesh had at Indian Wells/Miami? All 3 had different playing styles.

Where's he gonna play next? Hasn't entered anywhere till Apr 11.

The stream isn't working anymore. Ram actually aced on a second serve

Thanks Rajiv for the links. Was at work so wasn't able to catch the game. It's surprising to me that tennistv didn't show it. It's not everyday you get to watch Indians play each other at this level. I wonder where these sites pick the streams from? Obviously it's getting broadcast on some channel o...

Where can we get the matches? Stream? channel?

Are these matches available on TennisTV?

3 slams, Singapore and Dubai and that gives him 7 more tournaments for PR usage. Add the constraint of surface. Mostly he will go for hard courts. Entering bigger tournaments is a better route financially. If he can get into the 500s and 1000s, that's good money even for qualifiers. Say you win a ro...

Hoping that Ram gets a Qualifying WC at least. What about Sumit? I know he's in Germany but Dubai is well connected by flights to Europe and is only 3 hours ahead in time difference. Maybe he can get a qualies wc if not a main draw one. Currently he's the in form Indian player. Of course I don't kno...

Prasen, RamK didnt "demand respect" from his opponent. He used the word because he was given a sermon on "how to respect your opponent" and RamK retaliated by saying it's you who should be respecting etc. I saw the whole match yesterday. First set there was no issue, second set till 2-2 it all appea...
