No, form shouldn't decide who gets to play there.

 A post without mentioning Federer from you, amazing.

so much contradiction in that one sentence
''ferrer and monaco'', ''weak fields'', '' huge candidates for the WTF''
in all likelihood, ferrer will get double bagelled by both del potro and federer in the group stages |

Well perhaps I was expecting more from a clown troll of your level. My mistake.

I think ousher for life meant they're huge candidates to qualify to WTF.

Re: Should WTF have some kind of qualification?
You could have like the top 6 automatically and 2 places decided after qualies between say the next 8, that would effectively involve the top 20 and we'd have less tankers I reckon.
But Janowicz as a wild card? Nope...he doesn't deserve it.
I also don't like the round robin format, more tanking encouraged.

Re: Should WTF have some kind of qualification?
I think the top 16 guys should "rock, scissors, paper" for a spot, personally.
