The 8th spot can be a Wild Card and is usually awarded as such if a slam winner doesn't make top 8

The 8th spot is not a discretionary pick. The rule is

1) Selection List. The Selection List for the event shall be:
a) The top 7 players in the ATP 2008 Race as of the Monday after the last ATP
Tournament of the calendar year; followed by
b) Up to 2 Grand Slam winners of that year, in order of their positions, positioned
between 8 and 20 in the ATP 2008 Race as of that Monday; followed by
c) Players positioned 8 and below in the ATP 2008 Race as of that Monday.
