Gael Monfils is keeping his mind off of any chances of qualifying for the World Team Final year-end event, instead putting his head down in hopes of finally going the distance this week in Vienna.
The Frenchman, who lost the Austrian final a year ago to German Philipp Petzschner, stands provisional 16th in the race for the last two spots in next month's eight-man London wrap-up. But he's concentrating on just performing on court.
"I'm really not thinking about London, not at all. I'm more excited about maybe winning a title here after missing it last year," Monfils said. "I hope to play well here and next week in Valencia - maybe I can grab the title in Bercy (Paris Masters); that would help."
He trails Vienna rivals Marin Cilic, the top seed at 12th in the chase and number two Czech Radek Stepanek, provisional 14th.
Monfils has had a reasonable run of recent form, winning an indoor title last month in Metz and playing the Tokyo semifinals against compatriot Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, also a competitor for London.
