Federer Year End No.1: Yes or No

AM95 · 11-21-2009, 04:20 PM

What do you think? I personally think that he can pull it off despite his poor form.

State yes or no, add a reason, and discuss

Ill add a poll

Who cares, they both suck! Nah but seriously, it looks good for Roger. All he has to do is win a few matches and he's good. Rafa on the other hand, not impossible but looks dubious. If course however, he still has Davis Cup to squeeze in those extra points.

Yes is more likely than no.

Djokovich to become number 2 if he defends and Federer to keep his 1 title. Unforunately Soderling will defeat nadal, Nadal goes to semi's again to face federer for the 3rd time(2007 and 2006) and lose in the end.

And Roger skipped Shangai Masters, Tokyo and Washington, missing the chance of adding a total of 2000 points, the same ammount that Nadal couldn't add to his ranking points.

Nadal just didn't do enough outside Wimbledon to get Federer out of there.

LOLZ, I dont know why Nadal fans were under the impression that it was a guarantee for Nadal to win wimbledon this year.

The guy won the tournament one time and even then he had to struggle his ass off.

He didn't have to win it. He'd at least get to semis. He was in finals 3 years in a row. He lost tons of points. Federer would have to win 2 masters to make up for it

Lets see:
Federer Nadal
Doha Doha
AO AO
IW Rotterdam
Miami IW
MC Miami
Rome MC
Madrid Barcelona
FO Rome
Wimby Madrid
TO FO
Cincy TO
USO Cincy
Basel USO
Paris Thailand
London Shang
aaaaaaaaaParis
aaaaaaaaaLondon

So Nadal played 1 less slam, but an extra 500 and an extra 250.

2000 - 750 = 1250

Nadal did not play Thailand. He played Beijing. He also played 1 less Slam, 2 more 500s and 1 more 1000.

500 + 500 + 1000 = 2000

2000 - 2000 = 0

No advantage.
