1.   Georgetown was a top seed that finished the season ranked first.

2.   He is in the same half of the draw as top seed Peter Marshall, the world number five.

3.   In the other semi-final top seed Poul-Erik Hoyer-Larsen will face compatriot Peter Espersen.

4.   The top seed won the tournament.

5.   Huntridge from Doncaster and Williams from Wolverhampton also held the overnight lead in the slalom event but the top seeds including Roberts do not compete until today.

6.   UNSUNG South African Grant Stafford heaped more misery on world number one Pete Sampras yesterday by sensationally knocking the top seed out of the Stella Artois Championships at Queens.

7.   Evening rain interrupted top seed Mary Joe Fernandez and fellow American Rachel Jensen at the beginning of their second-match with the score at one set apiece.

8.   Almost as important an advantage is the opening-round bye given the top two seeds in each conference.

9.   And Duke, the top overall seed, barely survived Sunday against Kansas.
