In Nadal's case I don't think he will need any entry protection. His real ranking is easily "protected" until Roland-Garros and then I would be incredibly surprised if he left out of the top-50 then had problems to enter MS1000 tournaments.

Thanks for your response Mr. Duong. Yes, I understand it is for entry purposes as I stated. But regardless, doesn't he have to apply for it within 6 months of his last tournament if he needs to get it? In other words, can he afford not to apply? Suppose as he is training hard in early January to come back he re-injures his knee and would be out another 6 months. Then all his 2012 points would be gone and he would have 0 points. I think it would be foolish not to apply.

Respectfully,

Seems Istomin got a 0-point penalty for Basel. That's the first of the corrections I'm currently making. ATP are looking into the Isner-has-more-tournaments-than-the-breakdown problem.

Collarini was not auto-inserted into Buenos Aires CH because his changeover-to-Argentina became official this week.

Really ??

I haven't checked ATP website since last night and can't do it at my work now, but doesn't he have 907 points now on the ATP website ?

Slasher1985 · 10-29-2012, 10:25 AM

Yes, he does. Basel's 0-pointer got one of his 20-pointer tournaments out.

can he afford not to apply? he can imo, but he can apply if he wants higher protection which I don't think would be useful. Besides, Nadal would have all of the wild-cards he wants.

if he comes back, plays one tournament and re-injures for 6 months, he could apply after this tournament for an entry protection which would still be as high as if he applies now, as anyway Nadal's ranking will be on top until Roland-Garros for sure.

Maybe Isner took one from Kohlschreiber.

Philipp has a tournament count of 27, but if I'm counting correctly, he has 28 tournaments in his ranking breakdown list.

he has 887 points then ? they have changed it since last night then.

They also had made a mistake about Chela I had seen ; they had written a zeropointer in Valencia for the 31st of october instead of the 22nd of october.

No. He has 907 points. He had 927 points last Monday. Minus 20 this week -> 907. There is no mistake here, although I do agree about them making mistakes. Seems correct for Chela now.

So basically, Murray now has theoretical chance to be # 2 in the end of the year ?

If he wins Paris, gap between him and Fed in the race is only 955 points, right ? If he also wins all matches in London( it is a bif IF, I know ...) , he gets another 1500. If Federer wins 2 matches in group and loses in SF, he gets only 400 from WTF.

So, 100% succesful Murray may have 10 010 points after WTF.
Fed, if he wins only 2 matches in group, gets 9865 points.

I know, this is kinda long shot though ...

yes, yes, actually I had already counted this zeropointer for Istomin that's why I already had him at 907 despite not remembering I had already counted it, and probably despite not telling you I had done it.

The reason why I had guessed he would get this zeropointer is that he had withdrawn from Basel while still playing Moscow.

all this is true.

Anyway Murray will finish at the highest rank he has ever finished a year, whether it's number 3 or number 2.

Well these rules seem not to be often enforced by the ATP but in Murray's case I thought the case would cost him a zeropointer and told Slasher because he asked me to tell him about such cases a few weeks ago (I had guessed well other cases in the past like Isner's zeropointer in Monte-Carlo).

In the end no Murray escaped the zeropointer.

I do not believe this is so, because someone I trust in these matters, Yolita, has said what I said in my previous post.
