Well, I dont really care about Gugas ranking anymore, but something TennisHack posted on the GM made me wonder what can happen to Gugas ranking from now on.
He just lost in the first round of Toronto. Last year, in Montreal, he reached the third. Therefor, he will lose 70 rank points.
Next week we will start with 1425 points, which should put him one, two or three positions down. So, he will be 22nd, 23rd or something like that.
Cincinnati is the major problem. He won it, so he has 500
eek
points to defend. If he doesnt play, he will have 925 points the other week. Would be a ranking of something like number 38-40. It would mean no seed at the USOpen. :sad:
And then we have Indianapolis, where he reached the final last year. 175 points to defend. First round loss would mean 750 ranking points. Number 50 or around.
And then the UsOpen. He reached the quarterfinals, so he has 250 points to defend. Losing first round would mean 500 ranking points. Number 80 or around.
After that, the only meaningful results were the 110 points won on Stuttgart and Paris combined.
So the worst case posible would be a number 80 ranking after the UsOpen. Its damn bad, but for that he would have to lose every single match he plays.
