While Grand Slam season maybe over, the season as a whole isn't. And one really big milestone is within reach for the reigning defending undisputed heavyweight champion of the world....the defense of his heavyweight crown as ATP's top dog for the season. This to me will be his one and only chance to surpass the legendary Pete Sampras, with whom he is tied with at 6 titles. He wins this, he stands alone, as not only the longest reigning world number one but the one with the most year ending number ones....he will also break his own record of being the oldest year ending number one.
He has the lead over Medevdev, the number one contender to his title, as it stands, but Novak will have to play at least a few events to fully lock this in. The question is, how much does he go in, to get the job done and secure this lead. I think he makes a go of it, he knows this is his one chance to make history and surpass his idol at the top.
If he can end this year, with joint most slams, joint most masters, most weeks at number one and most year ending number ones....it will be a season to remember in tennis history. Can Medvedev stop him?
