Death Stryke Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Phew. Rafa finally does it. Was a brutal match. Delpo will be back for hard court season. He is definitely top 10 now. Hope his wrist and hips are in good condition. Biggest surprise is Tomic. Can he pull off an upset against the Serb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lithuvien Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 I heard if Nadal fails to reach QF and Federer wins Wimbledon... FedEx takes back the No.1 rank!! Nope. Djokovic becomes No 1, Fed No 2 and Nadal No 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhav Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Nope. Djokovic becomes No 1, Fed No 2 and Nadal No 3 I heard Vijay and Wilkins saying that since nole would have lost in semis to Fed, Fed would have overtaken both in that scenario... No point now as rafa is just running along... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Stryke Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Djokovic has the easiest way of becoming no 1. Rafa will have to win Wimby to retain his ranking. Anything else and Novak is the new no 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhav Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Djokovic has the easiest way of becoming no 1. Rafa will have to win Wimby to retain his ranking. Anything else and Novak is the new no 1. even if nole loses to fed in semis and rafa reaches final but loses...?! i think rafa would retain no. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Stryke Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) Nadal is at 12070 pts. He remains at 12070 if he wins. If he loses in finals, then his points become 11270. Nole is at 12005. Even if he loses in quarterfinals. his points become 11645. So as u can see, whatever Novak's result from now, if Rafa doesnt win Wimby, he loses no 1. As for Federer, if Rafa loses in semis or quarters, and Federer wins Wimby, Federer becomes No 2 and Rafa no 3.

lithuvien Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Nadal - 12070 Djokovic - 12005 Federer - 9230 IF Nadal had lost in the 4th round ... nadal - 12070 - 2000 + 180 = 10250 Assuming Federer wins Wimbledon .. Federer = 9230 + 2000 - 360 = 10870 Had Djokovic lost in the 4th round ... Djokovic = 12005 - 720 + 180 = 11465 In short, there was no way Federer was taking the No.1 spot this time Now, If Djokovic reaches the finals .. he is No 1 no matter who wins what ... Djokovic = 12005 - 720 + 1200 = 12485 If Rafa does not win the finals, he loses at least 800 points, which puts him behind Novak by a long way So here you go folks .. Rafa has to lift Wimbledon and pray someone takes out Djokovic en route to the finals, else he will be No.2 again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achilles Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 I don't see Novak occupying the No.1 slot for too long. His adrenaline rush has left him after more than 6 months. He's human now. Like the rest of them. Except Rafa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lithuvien Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 actaully, Novak can .. Rafa still has lots of points to defend even after the grass court season. If Rafa loses the top spot, he can only hope to regain it next year, unless Novak self destrutcts, which I dont see happening. Novak has put in a lot of work into his fitness, he reeks of confidence and is playing marvelous tennis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Stryke Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Thats true. any loss anywhere this year means rafa will only lose points. Even after Wimby he defends around 3500 points (USO, Tokyo, London finals) Unless he wins at a couple of masters tournaments to cover up for any lost points.

lithuvien Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 All that remains to be seen is how serious his foot injury is. This aint clay, where his game is miles apart everyone else's. On Grass, Murray, Novak and Roger are stronger than they are on clay so anything short of 100% will mean no silverware for Rafa this year.

Nemo Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Tsonga.. betich*d forehands and serve o_0 btw one thing i have noticed, fedrer is amongst the most sore losers i have seen, people harp about his nice guy image... bollocks, just see when he loses a match, goes all cold and lukewarm congratulation to his opponent. I am not saying its bad to be a sore loser (lord knows i am one) but it does not sit well with the gentleman aura that his worshippers have created. A stark contrast to nadal.. one of the most humble fella on court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
