Haasi had this little thing called "hip surgery". You may have heard of it.

Tommy Haas has had to take an extended break from tennis or end his season early SEVEN TIMES in his career. He has returned to the top 20 on five separate occasions after this, and returned to the top 10 once five years after his first interruption. That was six years ago. He got into the top 20 again last year.

So, to answer your question, yes I think he gets to pull out the injury "excuse" when it comes to his rankings.

Same here. His enthusiasm for someone as unlikely as Isner is pretty funny. I just hope Isner doesn't fall out of the top 30 this year. But who knows? 2013 might be the year of the Big Lumbering Oaf!!!
