Rafael Nadal rankings idea

Sponsored Link

Rafael Nadal, the current World Number One, feels that calculating ATP points over 24 months rather than the current 12 months will lead to many benefits to future generations of tennis players.

He says that he will continue to argue the point as it would mean a more relaxed life for tennis players, prolong careers and decrease the effect of injuries on the rankings.

Do you think Rafa has a point and a change in calculating the ATP rankings would improve the game?

The clay court specialist is looking to win another French Open next month and protect his number 1 spot from Novak Djokovic who remains unbeaten in 2011.

Federer out, Nadal and Murray advance

Sponsored Link

Rafael Nadal set up a much anticipated semi final match up with Andy Murray at the Monte Carlo Masters following a straight sets win over Croatian Ivan Ljubicic (6-1, 6-3) on Friday.  In difficult windy condition, the Scot beat Frederico Gil in 2 sets. On the other side of the draw, Roger Federer lost to Jurgen Melzer and the Austrian willl now play David Ferrer for a place in the final.

Federer was not at his best against Melzer but said it was only the first week of the clay season and that he will improve. Melzer was visibly overjoyed with his achievement and has now beaten all of the "top three" in his career. This is what he said:

"I beat Rafa last year (in Shanghai). I have beaten Nole (Djokovic, in the French Open quarter-finals). So this was the one missing. I'm very happy I actually did it today. It was a tough match for me. He beat me three times last year and I didn't even win a set. But many things went well for me, my shots worked well. When he had break points I was calm and served well. I did well on the big points and played my game."

Djokovic out of Monaco

Sponsored Link

ATP world number 2, Novak Djokovic has pulled out of the first tournament of the clay season, the Monte Carlo Masters in Monaco, with a knee injury. Over the last few weeks and months, you might have noticed the taping around Novak's knee and considering the amount of tennis he has played, this could be a good opportunity for him to give it a rest before the next phase of the season.

Djokovic, undefeated this year at 24-0 and the winner of the Australian Open, has not confirmed the severity of the injury or any potential return date. He said that he is disappointed as this tournament is one of his favourites. He added:

"It's a tough blow. Sad news not only for the tournament and my fans but also for myself."

Nole and co. raise $100000 for Japan

Sponsored Link

The charity soccer match between the world's top tennis players and Fort Lauderdale Strikers was a success, contributing a hundred thousand dollars towards the disaster relief fund for Japan.

The game was entertaining, with Murray and Baghdatis scoring goals in a game that the tennis players eventually did lose. The biggest problem it seems, was who would play in defence. An issue that will have to be addressed with more such games possibly on the horizon. This is what Djokovic said:

"We gathered around 10 or 15 players, and every single one of them wanted to be on attack," Novak Djokovic said. "So that was a big issue before the match. We'll have to work, definitely. We'll have to practice. We'll have to see who is going to be a defender. Otherwise I will be alone."
