Your post speaks 100% truth.Besides, he's always peaking for Chennai, just as for Buenos Aires and Umag
Just let his racket do the talking

Rod Laver to make a return this year and FINALLY peak, winning the Golden Slam. Carlos Moya will be top 30.

He has always played well in Chennai. Also expect some great tennis from him in Rome. Top 10? Why not. Clowns like Robredo have been there recently so why not a veteran.
Yeah, beating mugs like Corretja, Costa and co.Didn't he peak when he won RG and was #1?
Didn't they win the French Open too? double

Moya *is* having a renaissance though. 2007 was his best year in some while and he did play remarkably today. Granted, he often plays great at the start of the season, but this is a great start on the back of 12 months of solid results. Perhaps he's been doing dome Agassi-like off court work and wants to give it another go before he hangs it all up.
He could make it back to the top 5 if he really wanted it...

Injuries have been bothering him throughout his career, and in 2007 he stayed quite healthy. Hope he can keep it like that.

Ivan said Gonzo would finish 2007 ranked #2 after his amazing AO 2007 run, and look what happened. Just because Moya played well this week, doesn't mean he will for the remainder of the year (indeed, he will probably fall away indoors, for instance).
Top 20, yes. Top 10, no - I can think of 12-13 guys who, over the course of the year, can out-perform him.

While I do not have great faith that Moya will reach the top ten- I think it is very commendable that he has sustained a fairly high level of play at his age. Outside of 1999- he has won a tournament every year since 1995. And in 1999- he lost the finals of IW in five sets. He still does a great job out there- and seems to enjoy it.
It will sound sentimental, but I've got a lot of memories with Moya, from the very beginning of his career. Especially I remember his 1997 AO run - I was ill that time, was lying in bed and I saw ALL his matches. And it was the first (and only) tournament I've seen from the beginning to the end
Ah, enough with that
