Nadal In Pole Position To Secure Year-End No. 1

Spoiler:

Nadal stretches lead over Federer
Rafael Nadal is in pole position to finish the year at No. 1 in the Emirates ATP Rankings after winning ‘La Decima’ at Roland Garros.
The Spaniard is looking to finish atop the year-end Emirates ATP Rankings for the first time since 2013 and for the fourth time in his career (2008, 2010, 2013). A 2,000 point add from Roland Garros, where he beat Stan Wawrinka in Sunday’s final, takes Nadal to almost 3,000 points ahead of second-placed Federer, who missed the whole clay-court swing.

*bold denotes year-end No. 1
The year-end No. 1 (in bold) was either No. 1 or 2 in the Race after Roland Garros every year from 2004-16, with No. 1 in the Race finishing year-end No. 1 eight times and No. 2 five times.
It is quite the turnaround for Nadal, who finished 2016 at No. 9. But Nadal has earned the lead in the Emirates ATP Race To London after phenomenal performances in the first six months of the season, which have seen him and Roger Federer dominate on the ATP World Tour.
The 31-year-old Nadal finished runner-up to Federer in the Australian Open final and also lost out to the Swiss in the Miami final. But he has been almost unbeatable on the European clay. Apart from one defeat to Dominic Thiem in the Rome quarter-finals, Nadal has reigned supreme, winning his 10th titles in Monte-Carlo (d. Ramos-Vinolas) and Barcelona (d. Thiem) and claiming his 30th ATP World Tour Masters 1000 crown in Madrid (d. Thiem). He romped to the Roland Garros title for the loss of just 35 games.

All eyes now turn to Federer to see how the Swiss will respond in the No. 1 battle when the ATP World Tour moves to grass in the next five weeks. The 35-year-old makes his eagerly anticipated return to action at next week’s MercedesCup in Stuttgart.
Since 2004, the year-end No. 1 in the Emirates ATP Rankings has either been first or second in the year-to-date standings after Roland Garros.
Nadal has been among the top two in the year-to-date standings after Roland Garros in 11 of the past 14 years. This is the first time since 2010 that Nadal and Federer occupy the top two spots in the Emirates ATP Race To London at this stage in the season.

Nadal Returns To Top 2 After Historic Triumph

Spoiler:

Rafael Nadal has broken back into the Top 2 of the Emirates ATP Rankings for the first time since 6 October 2014 as a result of a stellar clay-court swing that culminated in the Spaniard winning a 10th title at Roland Garros. It was his 15th Grand Slam championship title.
Having won 24 of his 25 matches on European red dirt in 2017, Nadal has put himself in prime position to finish the season as year-end No. 1 in the Emirates ATP Rankings for the first time since 2013.
The 31-year-old superstar, who has won 53 of his 73 crowns on clay courts, has spent 634 weeks in the Top 10 over the course of his illustrious career. He first broke into the elite list on 25 April 2005, shortly before he captured his first major title on Parisian clay.


Two of Nadal’s Spanish compatriots also made notable rises. Pablo Carreno Busta, who beat Grigor Dimitrov and Milos Raonic en route to the Roland Garros quarter-finals – his first appearance in the last eight of a major championship – rose four places to a career-high No. 17. Fernando Verdasco, who knocked out No. 10-ranked Alexander Zverev in the first round, rose five spots to No. 32 after reaching the Last 16 in Paris.
Kevin Anderson continues to rise back up the Emirates ATP Rankings, following a series of injuries. The South African, who defeated Nick Kyrgios in the second round en route to a fourth-round exit (l. to Cilic), jumped 19 places to No. 37.
The 21-year-old #NextGenATP Karen Khachanov moved up 14 places to No. 39 as a result of a Last 16 run (l. to Murray), which included a second-round victory over Tomas Berdych.
Czech Jiri Vesely is now seven places shy of his career-high (No. 35 on 27 April 2015) after a 15-place rise to No. 42 with a Roland Garros third-round exit (l. to Bautista Agut) and his third title at the Unicredit Czech Open in Prostejov (d. Delbonis). It was his sixth ATP Challenger Tour clay-court crown.
Argentina’s Horacio Zeballos was rewarded with an 18-spot rise to No. 47 by advancing to the fourth round of a Grand Slam championship for the first time (l. to Thiem). Meanwehile, Japan’s Yuichi Sugita captured his ninth ATP Challenger Tour title at the Aegon Surbiton Trophy (d. Thompson), earning a 14-place jump to a career-high of No. 64.
Also, 25-year-old American Tennys Sandgren broke into the Top 100 for the first time (at No. 100).

Czy wycofanie się Nadala z QC coś zmienia w kontekście walki o #1 na Wimblu?

[lake]

No chociażby tyle że nie zdobędzie tam punktów, więc będzie musiał zajść dalej w Wimbledonie. Jeżeli pytasz czy przy wygranej przy Church Rd potrzebny mu QC to nie.

Five for One: A look at the paths to No. 1, from Murray to Federer

Spoiler:

Even in the annals of the tennis rankings, there has rarely been anything quite like the scene currently unfolding at the top of the men's game. Five players, all Grand Slam champions, are all in the running for the No. 1 position.

While Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic began the year No. 1 and No. 2, respectively, it is Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal who have dominated the season, returning to the upper reaches of the rankings. In between there's Stan Wawrinka, who has inserted himself into the Big Four era in increasing measure but has not reached the top spot.

Here's a look at where they'll stand when their 2016 grass-court points fall off the rankings, and what they can add in the next few weeks:

All the top four are within 2,000 points of each other, meaning that any of them could potentially be No. 1 following Wimbledon. That's a big difference from a year ago, when then-No. 1 Djokovic had almost double the points of No. 2 Murray.

Murray and Nadal are almost tied, but Wawrinka and Djokovic are more than 1,000 points back and need to do a lot better than their rivals. While Federer is further back and cannot be No. 1 following Wimbledon, a big grass-court haul would still leave him in a nice position—unlike the others, he has no points to defend for the rest of the season.

Even if the top spot does not change hands at the All England Club, winning the tournament would give any of the five the inside track on the No. 1 ranking. The champion gets 2,000 points, along with a huge helping of confidence. But the competition for No. 1 could still stay heated because they all have some room to add points during the hard-court season.


ANDY MURRAY

Murray went undefeated on grass in 2016, so it's notable that he's still leading the tour even when those are points off. A repeat would see him lock up No. 1, likely for many more weeks. Even if he doesn't win Queen's or Wimbledon, he's still in a good position to stay No. 1 as long as he has a good showing and neither Nadal nor Wawrinka goes undefeated on grass.

Murray also has around 1,000 points to defend during the hard-court season—less than he usually collects, which means he could still add to his total.

RAFAEL NADAL

If Nadal wins Wimbledon, it's quite simple—he’s No. 1. If he doesn't, it isn’t—he has to get to at least the second week, go a round further than Murray and stay within a round of Wawrinka. And if either Murray or Wawrinka have a good run during Queen's, or Djokovic wins Wimbledon, it would take a little more.

But since Nadal wasn't even playing a year ago because of injury, and doesn't have a lot to defend on hard courts, he should keep gaining ground.

STAN WAWRINKA

Getting to No. 1 would be bigger for Wawrinka than the other four, simply because he hasn't been there before. But to do it on grass he would need to win Wimbledon, and that's something else he hasn't done before.

On top of that, Wawrinka would also need some help from his rivals. Specifically, Murray would have to get less than 740 points on grass, minus any increase in the points difference between them at Queen's. If Murray reached the quarterfinal of Queen's and the final of Wimbledon, Wawrinka would not get to No. 1 even if he won both events.

Unless Wawrinka wins Queen's, he'll also need Nadal to not reach the final of Wimbledon.

That's a big task on his least favorite surface.

NOVAK DJOKOVIC

Djokovic is so far back that his position depends largely on the warm-up events—if Murray wins Queen's and Djokovic doesn't win Eastbourne—it’s unclear if he’ll play—the Serb can't get to No. 1 at Wimbledon. Even if he's still in the running when the tournament begins, he would need to win the title, have Murray and Nadal not do very much, and have Wawrinka not have a big grass-court run of his own. That's a lot to pull off.

But with the season he's been having, Djokovic is likely less concerned with the No. 1 ranking and more with collecting wins to build up his confidence. Nevertheless, he'll still want to add points to stop himself from falling even further in the rankings, especially because he also has a fair amount to defend during the hard-court season.

ROGER FEDERER

Federer can't get to No. 1 at Wimbledon, but he can get into contention for No. 1 at Wimbledon. Having played just five events this season, Federer doesn't have a huge points total, and even dropped back a little with his opening-round defeat in Stuttgart. But he has a couple more events on his most effective surface, and that could get him into the same ranking-points neighborhood as the top four at Wimbledon. From there, the seven-time champion would be in a good position to keep moving up.

ATP RANKINGS 26-06-2017: Roger Federer closes on Djokovic. Cilic is 6th

Despite another upset at Queen's last week, Andy Murray didn't lose any points to Rafael Nadal, being the world number 1 for the 33rd week. Andy is still more than 2000 points clear of Spaniard in second, with Stan Wawrinka holding the third with 6175 points, another 1110 behind Rafa.

Novak Djokovic is 4th, ahead of Roger Federer who cut the deficit to 540 points after winning the title in Halle. Marin Cilic, who made the final at Queen's, moved from 7th to 6th, passing Milos Raonic who is now 7th, in front of Dominic Thiem, Kei Nishikori and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, the remaining Top 10 players.

Interestingly, only 5 points separate Tsonga, Grigor Dimitrov and Alexander Zverev, who wasted the opportunity to get back into the Top 10 with the title in Halle yesterday. There were no new players in the Top 20 and Queen's champion Feliciano Lopez entered Top 30, gaining 7 positions.

Steve Johnson is out from the Top 30 while Karen Khachanov sits at the career-best 34th spot following the semi-final run in Halle. Another talented Russian, Andrey Rublev, entered the Top 100 for the very first time, losing to Khachanov in the quarter-final and earning some nice points that propelled him into this group.

He is also the biggest mover of the week, moving up 14 positions.

No to czas na walkę o numer 1. Wimbledon będzie pierwszym turniejem, który faktycznie może trochę przetasować w czołówce.

Andy Murray
Rafael Nadal
Stan Wawrinka
Novak Djoković

Ta czwórka ma szansę objąć prowadzenie w rankingu po zakończeniu Wimbledonu:

*Andy Murray will remain No. 1 by reaching his fourth Wimbledon final;
*Rafael Nadal will return to No. 1 by reaching his sixth Wimbledon final;
*Stan Wawrinka will debut at No. 1 by winning his first Wimbledon title;
*Novak Djoković will return to No. 1 by winning his fourth Wimbledon title, but only if both Murray and Nadal lose before the semi-finals.
