Boermans & De Groot take over top of World Ranking!

In fact, the Dutch domination had already shaped up a week earlier, when the points from two of the Cancun 4-star events last year dropped out of the accounts and the previous number one men’s team, Cherif Younousse and Ahmed Tijan of Qatar lost the top to another duo from the Netherlands, Alexander Brouwer and Robert Meeuwsen. The latter, however, stayed there only for a week. They did not take part in the Doha Challenge and dropped to number three, yielding the lead to compatriots Boermans and De Groot, who pocketed 680 points for their final four result in Qatar and improved to a 4,080 total, just 100 points clear of Cherif and Ahmed, who suffered a surprising loss in their eighth-final match at home.
