I just realized this: If Medvedev reaches the final and Djokovic doesn’t reaches the final, Daniil Medvedev will be the new world no. 1 in rankings on June 14th, 2021…

He gets to the final, loses to Rafa, yet becomes world No. 1 — more fun with crazy rankings!

And he can keep that ranking until after Wimbledon too because he is only defending 90 points and Djokovic is defending the whole 2000 points!

I Medvedev reaches final with that kind of game for clay, I'll build concrete shoes and sink myself in the nearest lake.

After this tournament, Djokovic can not gain some ranking points until Canada Masters (I doubt he will play this tournament though) because he won Cincy last year!

It’s similar to Medvedev that after Wimbledon, he can only gain points at Canada and US Open (both finalist points) as he won Cincy in 2019!

I read that the ATP said that the ranking system will return to normal in August 2022? is that correct

The players must be anxious to get the fans back.
Definitely. Very hard now when you're in a rut down 2 sets down and have to will yourself to come back with no pumping up from the crowd.

Gasquet has just won as many games as Djokovic did in last year's final, IIRC.

Only pumping Gasquet can hope for is when he get's back home.

That's a lot of ifs! If I won the lottery, I'd be rich! :D
