To be honest I think this is a moot point now and the year end is inevitably on its ways to Novak now. I think Fed’s over it emotionally interms of investment and just now focused on a good WTF (obviously aiming for a win) and then DC. And I think most fans are likewise over this race. A case of: a open secret that is just awaiting the mandatory official confirmation.

Djoker has the chance to equal Nastase and Lendl 3 Masters in a row and is not even mentioned?
Come on, Randall, you can do it better¡
Be more ojective this time and give an article to Djokovic this time. Expand your points of view at least once. There are much followers than a certain player.

i read that if nole were to win the wtf for a third time, he would break lendl’s record 3 in a row, a record which is 27 years old, the same age as nole, as well as the same number of wins on indoor courts nole presently has: 27.

^ consecutive wins, i mean

Statistically, Roger still has a chance, but realistically he has none and if he still manages to become year end No.1 then that can only perceived as a miracle. A good performance at Paris Masters would have helped Roger’s cause, but his elimination at the quarters there has complicated the scenario quite unfavourably. Nonetheless, Roger is not playing for No.1, he is playing because he loves the sport and wants to enjoy as much as he can and treasure those memories because he knows he cannot rule the game for ever and there will come a time when he will be compelled to hang the boots. All said and done, Roger is still the second best player in the World today and that requires some taking in such a competitive environment where the young guns are perceivably dominating.

No BP. Davis Cup can earn 500 points.
hè can win these points by winning final.
to reach final those points have already been awarded.

it is hardly aan miracle if Roger winswithoutlosing aan match + Novak need not reach the final + lose RR match.

those things are not so impossible to imagine but maybe not allthree.

so is novak 2 or 3 time defending champion?
2 in a row, but 3 titles….

November 9th, 2014 at 3:43 am

Sienna hes won the title for the last two years,and he won the title in 2008….

November 9th, 2014 at 9:02 am

I do know how many majors the players have won.
Why is he referred as 2 time defending champ and not 3.

a mistake or referring to the last 2 years?

November 9th, 2014 at 9:22 am

Sienna i think your making an issue about nothing really….

November 9th, 2014 at 9:25 am

Federer missed his chance for No.1 in Paris. Now it’s mainly up to Djokovic to seal it. Federer’s chances to end No.1 are about 5%.

November 9th, 2014 at 9:35 am

I think when the titles are back to back that’s how it’s spoken about in articles and what not…..I guess, but not sure!! Who knows what the nose knows…..speak beak!! Lol

when was a 3 time winner of thee single biggest tennis price after a slam Id like that they got my numbers correct.

the 5 big ones are being counted for history. Novak with 3 less of Rafa if he wins will be very conscious about nummers.

November 9th, 2014 at 2:51 pm

Sienna true,but theres nothing to say Nadal wont win more GS in the future,and in not knocking the WTF,as it is an important tounament,but i think Novak would still rather be where Rafa is with double the GS….

November 9th, 2014 at 4:00 pm

It would be great to see Roger Federer as a world no 1. He works so hard and has same age so it would be another big trophy in his career. Good luck

Nadal will be ready for AUOpen.

maybe it will become his most important slam. AuOpen will be a possible gamechanger.
winning there would give such a boost the rush will take him to Garros
….
you do the math…
