Court 3 two teams fighting for spot 18 in Paris qualification. Is this the tournament where AUT2, POL2, OR NOR2 passes CHI for spot 18 (counting top 9 finishes) in the Paris race?

hope they lose . Would like to see them play twice today. But given the level of competition, that is highly unlikely. Welp CHI splits em with an ace to take the first-half way there

Honestly, I don't know those guys, they could be great people, but it it's really hard not to root against them. Lets say they are my least favourite French team, and I'm not a big fan of any of the others (the young ones may have a future, not sure). why, did the parents of one of them buy them an Olympic WC? Rumors say that the French federation decided to give them the Olympics home team spot long ago, for undisclosed reasons. True or false rumors, fact is that they have recieved an awuful lot of regular wildcards without any particulary good resumee to justify them.

some surprises here... BRA1 loses to SUI (3?) Breer / Krattiger. CUB loses to BRA (4?). Last night if you had seen the matchups, nobody would have picked those two BRA results.

old fashioned money or power or both. That was at least a year ago, right? Too bad for the French teams who were working to earn it on the court.

Theo v Andre in a Challenge pool elimination match is pretty surprising. Andre/George must have the largest variance of any team on tour. Anywhere from winning an Elite to uno-dos in a Challenge.

Mudinger has a real opportunity here to close the gap to Treo, whereas Treo have a better than even chance of going home.

On the women's side, they all appear to be playing their Pool Winners' games, with no forfeits thus far.

Maybe the players have an informal agreement among themselves that if the conditions do not threaten heat stroke, nobody forfeits.
