You don't have to win something to get points.

Is it that hard to search facts before posting? He won Vienna 2004 when it was 500 tournament. |

Ask Berdych.
Anyway, he did win a challenger (  ) title this year and he had some good results in clay season and Shanghai, as well as some solid wins in the slams.

Nah at the time what is MTF's problem? Doesn't he have nice enough attacking game? Oh guys!! He did enough for top 20 in this year.

Lopez's Shanghai semi is worth more points than an Almagro 250 win. Even world number three Federer hasn't won a title since the beginning of January.

Re: 30-year-old Lopez for first time in Top 20
really deserved for feli, since i started watching tennis always wonder how he did not have more titles and big performances in GS slam.
btw he did win a title this year, it was Bogota one of the biggest tournaments of the season.
