Federer Smashes Records In Return To No. 1

Spoiler:

Federer returns to No. 1 more than 14 years after he first sat atop the ATP Rankings

More than 14 years after he first became No. 1, Switzerland’s Roger Federer today returned to the top of the ATP Rankings for a historic fourth stint at the pinnacle of men’s professional tennis. Federer, who began his 302nd week at No. 1 on 29 October 2012, breaks a number of ATP Rankings records by replacing his great rival, Spain’s Rafael Nadal, in top spot.

Just 13 months ago, Federer returned from a knee injury at No. 17 in the ATP Rankings and has since compiled a 64-5 match record — including nine titles from 10 finals — in that period. Today, he now holds records for the longest period between stints at No. 1, as the oldest player to attain top spot and for the longest duration between first and last days at the summit of men’s professional tennis.

"I think reaching No. 1 is the ultimate achievement in our sport,” said Federer. “This one maybe means the most to me [of any achievement] throughout my career, getting to No. 1 and enjoying it right here at 36, almost 37 years old. [It] is an absolute dream come true, I can’t believe it."

Federer is guaranteed to remain at No. 1 in the ATP Rankings through to 18 March, but the battle for top spot between the Swiss and Nadal will resume at the BNP Paribas Open, the first ATP World Tour Masters 1000 tournament of the year, which begins on 8 March.

Federer returns to top spot for the first time since 4 November 2012, five years and 106 days ago – the longest period of time between stints at World No. 1. At 36 years of age, Federer is also the oldest player to become No. 1, eclipsing the record of American Andre Agassi, who last held top spot aged 33 on 7 September 2003.

Federer first ascended to No. 1 in the ATP Rankings aged 22 on 2 February 2004 – a record 14 years and 17 days ago – for a total of 237 straight weeks until 17 August 2008. It breaks the previous record of Nadal, who debuted at No. 1 on 18 August 2008 and started his fourth stint in top spot on 21 August 2017 – a gap of nine years and three days. Federer returned to No. 1 on two further occasions between 6 July 2009 and 6 June 2010 (48 weeks) and from 9 July 2012 to 4 November 2012 (17 weeks).

Chris Kermode, ATP Executive Chairman and President, said, “Roger has spent his whole career rewriting the record books, but to reach the pinnacle of men’s professional tennis again at the age of 36 is hard to imagine. His longevity at the top of the game is simply remarkable. As he begins a fully deserved fourth stint at No.1 in the ATP Rankings, we congratulate him on yet another incredible record in his glittering career.”

Since returning from a six-month lay-off for the start of the 2017 season, the Swiss superstar has captured trophies at three of the past five Grand Slam championships (2017-2018 Australian Open, 2017 Wimbledon), three ATP World Tour Masters 1000s (2017 BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, Miami Open presented by Itaú, Rolex Shanghai Masters) and three ATP World Tour 500s (2017 Gerry Weber Open in Halle, Swiss Indoors Basel, 2018 ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament in Rotterdam). Federer also finished runner-up at the 2017 Coupe Rogers in Montreal.

Federer’s return to the summit of the men’s game was guaranteed by beating Dutchman Robin Haase for a place in the ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament semi-finals on Friday. Federer went on to beat Grigor Dimitrov in Sunday’s final at the Rotterdam Ahoy for the 97th tour-level trophy of his career.

ATP Rio de Janeiro: Fernando Verdasco bez podwójnej korony. Diego Schwartzman zdobył największy tytuł w karierze

Jerzy Janowicz z powodu kontuzji kolana nie gra w tenisa od listopada. W poniedziałek odpisano mu 90 punktów za zeszłoroczny triumf w Bergamo i wobec tego łodzianin spadł w rankingu ATP ze 133. na 154. miejsce. Drugą rakietą Polski został Hubert Hurkacz, który osiągnął ćwierćfinał imprezy w Kioto i wyprzedził Kamila Majchrzaka. W tym tygodniu wrocławianin powalczy o kolejne punkty w Jokohamie.

Najlepszym tenisistą świata pozostał Roger Federer, który wyprzedza Rafaela Nadala o 345 punktów. Szwajcar będzie mógł stracić pierwszą lokatę na rzecz Hiszpana dopiero po zakończeniu zawodów w Indian Wells, gdzie będzie bronić tytułu. W Top 10 doszło w poniedziałek tylko do jednej roszady - ósmą pozycję stracił Jack Sock, którego wyprzedzili Kevin Anderson i Juan Martin del Potro. W drugiej dziesiątce światowego rankingu po raz pierwszy w karierze znalazł się zwycięzca zawodów Rio Open 2018, Argentyńczyk Diego Schwartzman.

OFICJALNIE- Rafael Nadal już nigdy nie zostanie liderem rankingu.
Roger teraz nabije z 400 tygodni.

[Kiefer]

Jeszcze nie wiadomo, na razie przewaga Federera wzrasta do 600 punktów.

Federer 10060
Nadal 9460

Jeśli Hiszpan odpuści najbliższe Mastersy to bardzo możliwe, że Federer będzie liderem co najmniej do Wimbledonu.

[Barty]

Czyli Fed musi w IW i Miami zdobyć min. 710 punktów, żeby prowadzić w rankingu przed mączką, zakładając absencję Rafy w Stanach.
2 połówki albo finał i ćwiartka.

[Kiefer]

Pięknie to policzyłeś.

[Mario]

Czyli nawet jeśli Nadal nie zagra, musi zrobić co najmniej 2x SF lub F i QF. Nie jest to znowu aż takie oczywiste, mimo wszystko.

[DUN I LOVE]

Czyli nawet jeśli Nadal nie zagra, musi zrobić co najmniej 2x SF lub F i QF. Nie jest to znowu aż takie oczywiste, mimo wszystko.

Co więcej, jeżeli nie zrobi SF IW, traci jedynkę (przynajmniej na chwilę).

[matek20]

Przecież z tymi lamusami w tourze, to on wygra jeden z mastersów na luzie, jak nie dwa, gdy znów Berdychy i spółka zaczną partolić meczowe.

[Kiefer]

Czyli nawet jeśli Nadal nie zagra, musi zrobić co najmniej 2x SF lub F i QF. Nie jest to znowu aż takie oczywiste, mimo wszystko.

Niby nie, tylko z drugiej strony kto ma w tym tourze go zatrzymać teraz? Może sam Federer obniży loty, ale nie wydaje mi się by przynajmniej w jednym turnieju dobrze nie zapunktował, jedną wpadkę może zaliczyć, wpadkę, bo przy dzisiejszym układzie sił każda jego przegrana jest wpadką. Umówmy się, tylko wiek i stan fizyczny jest znakiem zapytania, bo po prostu być musi, w końcu ma 36 lat, jeśli o umiejętności chodzi to żaden z rywali nie ma do niego startu. 10 lat temu przy takim układzie sił byśmy się zastanawiali ile straci setów drodze do dwóch triumfów, teraz w dwa co prawda nie wierzę, ale jak jednego nie zgarnie (raczej Indian Wells) to się zdziwię, tych mastersów raczej przypadkowi tenisiści nie wygrywają, wygrywają Djokovic, Federer, czasem Nadal, finały też robią głównie Federer, Nadal czy Murray, raz pojawił się Del Potro (choć to nie jest przypadkowy zawodnik, ale kontuzje wiadomo, raz Isner, Raonic czy Ferrer.

[DUN I LOVE]

W każdej chwili może się trafić jakiś Donskoj czy Stachowski. Wbrew pozorom dużo nie trzeba, żeby przegrać mecz tenisowy.
