Purav is ranked 92 now and has a lot of points to defend till end of the year. So, he will need some strong performances to end the year well and try to get into main draw at Australian open 2019.

Purav’s partner is ranked 104, just one slot above Balaji. Begemann is 102, with a career high of 36, and his partner Polasek (now #167 although aged only 33) has a career high of 20. This was a very good win, but Purav should be playing one of the ATP tournaments instead.

He would not be getting into ATP main draws with his current ranking of 91.

Ok, so Jeevan and Purav would have got in if they had played together in Stockholm.
