For example, when I counted , if Menšík really qualifies, how to make a second pair if the first would be Lehecka/Machač? Maybe it could be Adam Pavlásek who is currently 36th in doubles ranking. If Pavlásek was in top 20, I would say it is doable. But for 36th place, it is kinda highest he has even been but still there are many players ahead of him who also may pair up with other singles players. Anyways, speaking of withdrawals, I guess we will read about most of them in June as ITF will probably require all the tennis players, especially from singles, to confirm their participation as soon as possible. I am bit sad about Novak who had to undergo meniscus surgery and having that less than 2 months before the Games, I am starting to feel that he may not be able to make it. Such a pity because thats the only title he has been missing. Still hope he can make it🙏🙏 Josh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumit just won his semifinal at Heilbronn. The list does not get finalized till he finishes his final tomorrow. He was the only one still controlling his destiny in qualifying for Olympics since yesterday and he has won 2 matches to keep it going.

Yeah, too bad she failed to qualify as she was the only one in the fight, but honestly if she was not able to even qualify through the ranking despite millions of quotas awarded there, then she can really just blame herself Edited June 9 by hckošice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiki shows she is on the list, I know we can't always trust the wiki updates but I believe that she will make the cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Jozef Kovalik is currently 119th so it is highly impossible. But Smiedlova with 80th place, I think she still has descent chances.....
