Bernard Tomic withdraws from Miami Open due to back injury, replaced by Mikhaïl Youzhny

Are you still going to use Kukushkin?

Nevermind, the match is about to start.

You advance with Mahut's victory earlier. The b/u system was designed to protect for just this type of scenario where a late withdrawal limits your options. Had Mahut lost, you would still have had the option to stick with Kuku against his new opponent as long as you confirm that prior to the match start time.

Cheers. I knew that's how it worked if the player that I chose has withdrawn (say if I had chosen Tomic). And wasn't sure if the rule was the same as Mahut was already through.
Thanks though!

Actually thats not correct. See #8 in the OP. If Kuku had lost, Aussie would have been out because Aussie would have had to say before the match started to use the backup instead. We ran into this in IW where a LL stepped in after a pick was made and won and the person was eliminated because they didn't change their pick themselves, and their backup pick did win their match. Since Kuku won, aussie is good, but had Kuku lost, Aussie would be out.

Exactly.

And Kukushkin was involved in this again lol. In IW he was the LL that won the match, now he had to play against a LL.
