Sorry I'm not great at math. I was looking at the rankings breakdowns and it looks like Nadal could be outside the top 4 at the AO, if Murray, Wawrinka, and/or Nishikori have strong finishes to the year.
I can't remember how early they decide the seeding either so that might affect it as well.
Nadal stands to lose at least 1,360 points for sitting out the remainder of the year. He also has 250 points to defend in early Jan.
It looks like if Wawrinka and Murray have very strong finishes they could overtake Nadal in the rankings. Might be a long shot, but possible.
