CH Nottingham Finals: G. Muller def. M. Bachinger 76(4) 62
In news highly relevant to about 4 MTF members right now, Gilles Muller finally overcomes his Finals losing streak (6 losses in a row. S-I-X) and wins a CH title, making Nottingham his first title win since Izmir 2008. 
This will hopefully help propel him back to the Top 100, where he belongs, and to the main draws of higher level events. And my TV screen.
No idea how his injury is holding up right now, but hopefully with this new rush of confidence things become more stable. 
Also, Muller's insideout forehand > your fav's. Discuss.

If he manages to stay injury-free he will be TOP 100 soon. Do you think he has a chance of making the main draw of Wimbledon?

This win puts him in the Top 100 already (#93 I think), it's just a question of how well he can sustain it.
I think this does get him into the main draw, but I don't know the Wimbledon seeding system so well, so not 100% sure.  |

Wimbledon seeding system doesn't change the entry list in any way.

Gilles! He wins a challenger, I'm so surprised! Hope he has a great grass court season after somewhat meagre last weeks.

The Wimbledon EL came out weeks ago, and he wasn't top 100 then, so he needs to play qualis next week. But he has a very good chance to succeed there. |

He unfortunately is not in Wimbledon directly, but this does give him a good shot to make the USO direct. He had a very good week and was dominant on serve throughout. Hopefully he can continue this form through Wimbledon and show his grass court prowess.
