Great end of the year for Mate Pavic, 15k title and final. He will be #7 (#368) among his generation on new list. He is only player made ATP MD win among his generation this year. Actually 2 of them, he beated JCF (#37) and Haase (#40). He is #130 in doubles, plays S&v, so needs more time to develope. Let's see what he will become.

The 1993 generation has never looked very good, esp. comparing to the very good 1992 generation, but it became even worse because its most promising players have been hampered by injuries :

- Jason Kubler (Aus) was the most promising one but has recurring knee-problems, mostly has to play on clay ;

- Tiago Fernandes (Bras) was maybe the second most promising one but was very disappointing in last two years apparently because of back problems ;

- Carlos Boluda-Purkiss (Esp) used to be the most promising one when he was very young (won "Petits As" twice) but has been out of Tour for very long (even longer than previous ones) because of injury

- even the Korean Jeong Suk-Yong, who was the first one with Kubler to really emerge in the rankings, had to stay out of Tour for very long.

it's quite worrying imo how many young players have big and long-term injury problems, it seems to me that they have more ones than the older ones (also Krajinovic, Carreno-Busta, even Stebe, Berankis ...).

Thank you very much for this

[Chilenaitor]

thanks you!

[Beta2k]

i have to say once again how awesome this thread (OP) is. it's so easy to watch the young player's advancements in current tournaments ... <3

Quinzi is now 17, and out of the U16 table. We have a new leader there.

There seems to be a mistake with Del Potro's ranking?

Again, amazing work, thanks a lot!

The updated version will be posted as soon as possible. For now, the update system is not operational.

Garin just became leader of the U16 group with his win in Vina del Mar.

Interesting to see quite a few Argentinians and Americans in the under-21-list, while Spain has only one player of that age group in the top-300 (Javier Marti). Spanish tennis heading for a serious decline?

Hey slasher i've got an awesome idea why don't you make an OVER 32 rankings ? It'd be cool. Which means aged 32 or older

[coluta]

That would be nice!

it's speficic to 1992 generation.

in 1993, 1994 and 1995 generations, the best Spanish player is better than the best Argentinians (Carballes-Baena, Perez-Sanz and Artunedo-Martinavarr)

Spaniards still have good prospects, just like Argentinians, but of course when Nadal and Ferrer disappear, it will be painful for Spanish tennis. At least Del Potro is younger.
