The Rankings Thread (ATP)

Excuse me, please. It's not bonfire night yet. That's tomorrow.

Of course. But these will not change until tomorrow. No matches left to influence these placements.

O.K. You just decided to put tomorrows date on it. I'm very sorry. I also forgot that for some people it is already 5/11 now or 11/5 in American short date.

With Rafa withdrawing from the WTF, Novak officially clinches YE1.

If Roger wins the WTF without losing a match, he sneaks by Rafa for #2.

 

[monfed]

faker is such a vulture. Fed got no such concessions from dull last season and dull even played Beijing and one match in Paris just to deny Fed. So sick of this moonballer coming in the way of greatness. So unfair that Fed doesn't have 6 YE#1s ATLEAST, specially last year.

Enjoy your vultured YE#1, fakervic. Got #1 ranking from dull's withdrawal in Paris, and YE#1 with dull's withdrawal from WTF. Disgusting scenes all around.

If there's ANY justice in this world then Fed should win his 7th WTF.

Now I'm starting to think you're just trolling with this constant absurdity.

He is & has been doing for ages. (I was the 1st person to notice.)

Now I'm starting to think you're just trolling with this constant absurdity.

I pointed out the absurdity of his claims couple times to make sure everyone can also see them. But I stopped pointing because I'm simply bored and everyone can see through it by now. Best example is how monfed changes his opinion about the "difficulty" of WTF RR draws, depending which player he talks about, and if he wants a given player to win or lose. A classic but unusually strong rationalisation (that can also be called "escape to virtual reality") to satisfy inner feelings. I think he does not troll for just a fun of it: he really believes in his often self-contradictory virtual realities because he's unable (or at least unwilling) to focus on other people's point of view.

I like to discuss the facts.

With Roger's win today, the YE top 3 are set:
1. Djokovic (31)
2. Nadal (32)
3. Federer (37)

That's 100 years of age.

It would be nicer if they are in descending order of age.

Djokovic is the oldest year end no1 since rank charts started in 1973.

Djokovic is the oldest year end no1 since rank charts started in 1973.

Funny, because Rafa was last year. That would make him older by one month? Not really worth mentioning the history of ranking charts then is it, really?

Exactly. They were basically at the same age. No need to be nitpicky, counting by days.

Oddly, it almost passed without notice last year. I think everyone was so shocked that Rafa was the "oldest" at anything. Even Nadal fans.

New career high this week, 26 November:

36. Marton Fucsovics 26y
84. Ugo Humbert 20y

With these changes, the top 100 will stay unchanged until the next season.

 

[El Dude]

I just noticed Humbert. He happens to be the fourth youngest player in the top 100, after Shapovalov, De Minaur, and Tsitsipas.

True. And the third ranked among those born 1998, after Tsitsipas and Tiafoe.
