[El Dude]

Look at Rajeev, climbing the charts.

 

[herios]

Look at Rajeev, climbing the charts.

If I would be him, I would make the breaking into the top 50 my goal. I hope he does it.

 

[Billie]

One old guy and the rest are younger, so that is good to see, herios. Goffin did really well in back to back Masters and Nick is up to #20. Nice job!

 

[masterclass]

Even though the age groups are skewed somewhat in terms of the length of years, I chose these age groups to divide the numbers into approximate thirds. Not exactly, because of number of players at the boundaries.
36 players in the 26 and younger group also coincides with the players who have not won a major.or masters. Fritz is the youngest at 18.
28 in the middle group, also containing the world #1 and #2 players,
36 in the 30 and over group, containing 5 of the top 10 players. Karlovic is the oldest at 37.

The Top 10 is quite telling of the trend in experienced players remaining at the top of the game.

 

[Federberg]

We have a new list after Miami on which No1e has 16,540 and Murray on #2 has 7,815

They say this is the first time ever that #1 has more than double points of #2.

Lol! He must be the greatest ever then

Yes, agreed. 30 and overs have good numbers across the board, especially in the top 10 and in another two months, Rafa and Richard turn 30, leaving only Kei, Andy, and Novak under 30 in the top 10 if nothing changes.
But also, maybe the players under 27 are not quite as bad as many people think.
They just haven't won anything big - majors/masters, which keeps them from being top 10 (except for Nishikori, who has come closest).
But they have good numbers in the other ranking groups.

Masterclass, great statistical analysis. But you have an incorrect statement. Zverev is not the youngest in the top 100 at 18, Taylor Fritz is, 6 months younger than Zverev.

Indeed he is, mixed them up. Thanks for the correction! I edited my OP.

If you combine Roger's and Andy's ranking points, it is 1030 points behind Novak.

Here's what Andy thinks of that.

After three full months of play, Roger is at #13 and Rafa is at #14 in the race rankings. :cover

 

[El Dude]

And Milos is #2...so what does that tell you?

Seriously though, you realize that Roger hasn't played in over two months? That #13 is via all of 10 matches (8-2), while Rafa's is 18 (12-6).

Of course, I know that Roger hasn't played since AO. But, I didn't want to appear to be bashing Rafa. I thought I would let someone who observes it to do it. :devil

Last season Roger was hanging around #6 for half the season until his points finally caught up to making him a proper #2 in the world! It happens whether you're play or not; just depends on the results! He's out of the top 10 only because of a lack of play! :cover :nono
