then nadal gets number one, he should hold it for at least a year it would gave him a chance to get closer to the other greats.

You always have to overdo! When has Nadal ever held the #1 ranking for "any real" length of time? That's why he's woefully behind Fedovic in that category! Well over 30 he's all of a sudden going to dominate the tour? Please! :whistle: :cuckoo:

Nadal will be like Serena, huge accomplishments in both his 20’s and 30’s.

first of all holding the 1 number one for a whole year is long time but want ever, second of all nada does not need to dominate the tour he just needs to win the most majors and get weeks at number one up.

 

[Fedal_fan]

In case anyone is interested in understanding the scenarios where Rafa, Nole and Roger can end up as YE no. 1

 

[Andy22]

nadal about to enter the top 2 of all time for most weeks in the top 5 I mean this adds to how out of the world player nadal is I mean the reason tennis is so popular today role model for everyone even Federer fans.

 

[Fiero425]

I'm feeling a little more comfortable about Nole retaining the #1 ranking! Nadal's still ahead for the time being YTD, but Djokovic might be ok & could actually gain more pts in the YEC to finish ahead of Rafa; we can only hope! The 6th YE #1 w/b another feather in his cap! :whistle:

He won't...

I started to feel more positive too. End of season (after USO) is where he usually collects tons of points if he is feeling well. He performed rather poorly outside of GS this year, with only one masters win. If he remains fit to play until the London there is a good chance he will fight it until the end to stay on #1. I just hope he wins Tokio and gets his form and mojo back for a start.

Djokovic can do it but is unlikely nadal would have to play really bad or get injured for Djokovic to end number one of course it can happen but I think nadal going to get number one at some point.

Yeah. If Novak's wants to be the year end number one let him wear himself out. The only event Rafa should play is WTF which has NEVER been high on my list..The format of best of three until the finals is perfect for his knees and rest of his beaten up body..If he makes late into the later rounds or wins , he secured #1 , hopefully.

I noticed that Caruso won a Challenger in Barcelona on Sunday. Look how young all those guys are, for a change!

 

[Fiero425]

The top ten for #1 isn't going to change anytime soon! With L. Hewitt in 10th place holding the top ranking for just 80 weeks, it probably won't have an additional name for years to come, even with potential of Med & Thiem! :whistle:

In so many of these table Fed is ahead of both Ralph and Nole. In the category of most consecutive weeks in top 10 alone, Ralph is ahead of Roger. Nole has a reasonable chance of surpassing Roger in the all important category of number of weeks at #1 with only 38 weeks to go. That is probably another reason Novak is chasing YE #1. If he finishes YE #1, he gets at least around 10 free weeks added to his tally as he will be #1 during off season.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

so if medvee wins final he goes above federer to 3rd in race but still no4 in actual rank charts.

 

[Front242]

Only a matter of time till he goes above Federer in actual non live rankings if he keeps this crazy high level up. Federer lost early though in the 4th round of the AO last year so he can make some inroads there by presumably doing better. Long way away though still. Medvedev might well be very dangerous the rest of the year and bag tons of points.
