Re: RACE to the 2010 World Tour Finals

Changes as per 2010 ATP Rulebook​

  • 9.03 A. Commitment Players - having satisfied the requirement to play the 4 '500' events (including one following the US Open), may count a THIRD '250' result to replace his lowest '500' result.

  • 9.03 G. Points - points now also awarded for qualifying round losers in '250' events.

Does that mean that '500' event after the US Open has to be included in the points or a player just has to compete at the '500' event after the USO? If a player just has to enter the '500' event (after the USO) than this rule isnt good.

If e.g. Marin Čilić gets his 3 '500' events with Dubai, Washington and Davis Cup (500, 300, 240 points e.g.) and has 3 wins at '250' events then he just has to enter the '500' event after the US Open to gain 250 points and can easily lose the first round, rather than chasing the final which will give him more points than that 3rd win at the '250' event.

RACE to the 2010 Barclays ATP World Tour Finals​

As was the case last year, we will be collating results at Tour and challenger levels to bring you a list of the top 75 players over the course of this 2010 season.

Some will think that it is far too early to be updating such a list, but many, like myself, will be interested to follow some of the smaller names...and there will certainly be a number of such players appearing in this list at least for the first month or so. :cool:

As always, any contributions are most welcome:

  • Support/moan about your favourite players' progress
  • Help out the team (duong, yamor, amirb, felipe, judio, myself etc), add some of your own interesting features, point out any discrepancies etc etc
  • Engage in constructive discussion on anything that takes your fancy

Enjoy the season! :drink:

Hello. Nice and brave work :)

Thanks for doing it :)

I will probably make a calculation on my computer myself and will be glad to be able to compare with yours :)

Only a suggestion : as far as the qualifying for the ATP world tour final is concerned, they will take the ATP rankings after Paris-Bercy ... which will include the ATP points for the Davis Cup final for Nadal and Ferrer : you might add them to your calculation sooner or later (I mean you could add them later if you want, when the qualifying for the ATP world tour final is really at stake ;) )

Yes, but since the Race doesn't officially exist anymore, they choose the players who play in the WTF according to the ranking after Paris Bercy. Therefore those who gain points in the Davis Cup final the previous year will have the opportunity to count these points in their ranking.

Yes, hugely significant for two reasons...firstly, he automatically earned 800pts more than the runner-up (a large figure when you compare it to what is on offer at '250' or even '500' level). Secondly, his other serious rivals in Djokovic and Del Potro (and potentially Nadal) all failed to get beyond the QF, so the gap is much bigger.

As long as Fed continues his form in Slams (and is arsed enough to rack up some solid performances in Masters '1000' events) he will be extremely tough to pass this year. Obviously very early days, but it wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't relinquish this lead. :shrug:
