Nice win and cool to see another one with a career Grand Slam and now really being one of the best players of all time :) 

 

Anything better than Murray anyway :p

France 1 Mahut Nicolas Garcia Caroline 3 4 2
USA 4 Bob Bryan Serena Williams 1 5 3
Spain 4 Nadal Rafael Muguruza Garbine 2 6 4
France 3 Herbert Pierre-Hugues Mladenovic Kristina 4 7 5
India 10 Bopanna Rohan Mirza Sania 1 11 6
Romania 6 Tecau Horia Halep Simona 5 11 7
Switzerland 5 Wawrinka Stan Bencic Belinda 8 13 8
USA 5 Mike Bryan Mattek Bethanie 9 14 9
Czech Republic 8 Berdych Tomas Hradecká Lucie 10 18 10
Great Britain 2 Murray Jamie Konta Johanna 18 20 11
Poland 21 Matkowski Marcin Radwanska Agnieszka 3 24 12
Serbia 1 Djokovic Novak Ana Ivanovic 25 26 13
Australia 12 Peers John Stosur Samantha 14 26 14
Spain 14 Ferrer David Suarez-Navarro Carla 15 29 15
Germany 26 Kohlschreiber Philipp Kerber Angelique 4 30 16
Belarus 26 Mirnyi Max Azarenka Viktoria 6 32 17
Netherlands 7 Rojer Jean-Julien Bertens Kiki 27 34 18
Romania 11 Mergea Florin Niculescu Monica 26 37 19
Italy 34 Fognini Fabio Vinci Roberta 7 41 20
Czech Republic 31 Stepanek Radek Hlavackova Andrea 11 42 21
Serbia 21 Troicki Viktor Jankovic Jelena 24 45 22
Russia 42 Kuznetsov Andrey Vesnina Elena 7 49 23
Germany 34 Petzschner Philipp Goerges Julia 16 50 24
Ukraine 31 Dolgopolov Aleksandr Svitolina Elina 19 50 25
Italy 40 Seppi Andreas Pennetta Flavia 13 53 26

 

 

I feel like, in the end, the participating pairs will be 2 each from SUI, FRA and USA (if Serena doesn't play, Madison Keys or Abigail Spears can play) and 1 each from IND, ROU, GBR, AUS. The remaining 2 pairs likely to be from CZE, ESP, SRB, NED, BLR or GER. 

 

Likely wild cards - BRA, ARG, TUN, MEX

 

If anyone has info about who has confirmed they are playing or not playing, please post...

Djokovic will play only in single and men's dobules with Zimonjic. 3 disciplines would be too much. He wants two medals, of course single is priority ( actually final is his goal as he said few days ago)

Pennetta retired from professional tennis, so a more likely pair would be Seppi-Errani. They actually paired together for London, so it is not an unlikely combo.

Are you sure about Petzschner? How did he qualify?

I think there is still a possibility for no german male player in Rio. Kohlschreiber didnt want to play in 2012 and now that there are no points awarded i am not sure that he will play. Zverev might try to push his ranking by playing somewhere else, just like Tomic, Thiem or Kyrgios. I think Kerber/Petkovic and Siegemund/Beck will play womens doubles for sure. I dont think that Kerber will play all 3 events and i dont think that Zverev/Kohlschreiber will play mens doubles, so i think we wont have a mens double. I think we could see a combination like Zverev/Petkovic in mixed doubles.

 

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

    • Seriously wish Bialystok will be banned from any European competition and for long time.
    • Unexpected boost for Team    American rapper Snoop Dogg has been named an 'honorary coach' for Team USA at next year's Winter Olympics.   The United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC) announced on Thursday the 54-year-old will take on "a volunteer role celebrating and supporting America's athletes off the field of play".   Snoop Dogg named 'honorary coach' for Team US at Winter Olympics - BBC Sport
    • Just now getting around to these results...glad to see USA win a gold.  Didn't think we were much of a contender here.  Home soil luck?
    • Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall.
