Game Week 5 roundup

In Dubai Iga looked to be baking her way to another title this week but Barbora Krejcikova (who was very close to a 1st Rd exit against Kasatkina) had other ideas and put in an outstanding display to beat the No 1 in straight sets.

In Doha Daniil Medvedev made it 2 tournament wins in a row bringing to an end the gladitorial efforts of Andy Murray who had spent another week battling through three set epics and numerous match points to get to the final!

In Rio, it was a repeat of the Argentina Open final but with a different outcome as Cameron Norrie managed to get the win over an injury hampered Carlos Alcaraz. It remains to be seen whether these two play Acapulco this week.

In Merida - we had a rare smile from Camilla Giorgi (see group cover photo) as she took the title and Hubert Hurkacz won his first title of the year in Marseille.

Congrats to our FTL Champ for the week Graham with Metty's Marvels.  Graham had 1 champ this week with Medvedev and 2 finalists in Swiatek and Alcaraz.  I imagine he wasn't a big fan of Krejcikova this week though as she beat 3 of his team members who just happen to be the WTA 1,2 and 3!

Taylor Andrew just missed out on top spot by 3 points! Taylor had both Rio finalists  and was able to use his ERs to go effect with Cerundolo and Kalinina coming in for Draper and Coria.  If only he hadn't had Draper as a KP,  but congrats nevertheless on a great week.

Ashim Agarwal, Jayne Patricia Lewis and Kei TO make up the top 5 for the week,
