On October 13, 2014, the latest issue of the ATP World Rankings has surprises.
The top four are still Djokovic, Federer, Nadal, and Wawrinka. Among them, Federer carried the Shanghai Masters champion to overtake Nadal and returned to the second position.
Starting from the fifth place, Ferrer, Berdych, Raonic, Dimitrov, Murray, Kei Nishikori, in order, until the tenth place, the only change is that Murray rose slightly Lost two positions and returned to the top ten.
From the 11th to the 15th place, Cilic, Gao Wen, Tsonga, Gulbis, Isner sat in a row and ate fruit, and there were some obvious changes in the rankings—
Gao Wen, after breaking into the semi-finals of the Shanghai Masters, scored 360 points, which also allowed him to rise again, continuing to refresh his personal best ranking.
At present, Gao Wen's world ranking is temporarily ranked twelfth. As long as he works harder, he is very hopeful to end the whole season in the top ten position at the end of the year; once achieved, he and Kei Nishikori will jointly create an Asian A new history, this is another scene.
The world rankings are calculated based on the 52-week, one-year cycle of points, that is, the points from the second week of October last year to the second week of October this year.
The championship points are calculated based on the points in a natural year, that is, the rankings listed from the first week of January to the second week of October this year.
The former looks at the best performance in the past year; the latter focuses on the best performance in a natural year, and the basis for the year-end finals is the latter.
Similarly, on October 13, 2014, the latest round of ATP championship points, also known as the "straight to London" ranking, still surprises.
By the way, from 2005 to 2008, the ATP year-end finals were held in Shanghai, which was well received.
It is precisely because the Magic City Organizing Committee left a deep impression on people, so in 2009, the year-end finals signed an agreement with London to be held in Fog City; and the ATP Masters Series made adjustments, and the Stockholm game was relegated , Modu will be upgraded to a brand new Masters Tournament.
From 2005 to 2008, the championship standings were called "Straight to Magic City", but now, it is "Straight to London". In this list:
The top four are still Djokovic, Federer, Nadal and Wawrinka. Their championship points have all exceeded the 5,000-point mark and they are far ahead. These four players have already won tickets to the year-end finals first.
From the fifth place onwards, the competition has become fierce, because the championship points are very close, and the results of the next week's competition may cause the championship points to be reshuffled.
Fifth, Berdych, 3945.
Sixth, Raonic, 3750.
Seventh, Ferrer, 3715.
Eighth, Murray, 3655.
Points are a numbers game, and it can be clearly seen that Murray only needs 300 points to overtake Berdych, which would be the top four points in the Masters.
What's more, it's not just the fifth to eighth places. Behind them, there are a group of competitors who are eyeing them, and the difference in points is very small.
Ninth, Kei Nishikori, 3515.
Tenth, Dimitrov, 3450.
Eleventh, Cilic, 3145.
Twelfth, Gawain, 2710.
From a theoretical point of view, as of Tsonga, this is the last player qualified to compete in the year-end finals.
Of course, behind Tsonga, there is still a glimmer of hope for Gulbis, Agut, and Isner, but the premise is that they will all win the next three weeks and rank fifth to thirteenth in the main competition. The opponents all stopped in the first or second round of the three-week event.
The difficulty can be imagined.
Therefore, the main line of sight still stays in front of Tsonga.
After the end of the Shanghai Masters, there are still three weeks to go.
In the first week, Moscow, Stockholm, and Vienna, choose one of the three, all of which are 250 point races.
In the second week, Valencia and Basel, choose one of the two, all of which are 500-point races.
In the third week, Paris, the Masters, that is, the 1,000-point competition.
In other words, from a theoretical point of view, if you win all championships in three weeks, you can get 1,750 points, which will also determine the final places in the year-end finals, from fifth to thirteenth. Qualified to compete.
Among them, Gao Wen was among them.
If someone questioned, as the champion of the US Open, Gao Wen couldn't be shortlisted for the year-end finals? Isn't this outrageous?
However, it must be noted that Gao Wen has only officially started participating in July, and the number of entries currently is only six races.
Looking at the entire championship points ranking, among the top 100, Kyrgios, ranked 47th, has the least number of entries, with only 13 stops; followed by Djokovic's 15 stops, Nadal, Federer and Wawrinka's number of entries is also very small, all of which are 16 stops.
In other words, the number of other players participating has all reached double digits, more than twice that of Gao Wen, but Gao Wen still ranks twelfth in the championship standings. Such performance is already unbelievable—
After only participating in professional competitions for half a season, half of the six tournaments were challenge competitions. As a result, Gao Wen has now entered the year-end finals competition list. This is Gao Wen's momentum so far:
All in awe!
However, considering that the number of Gao Wen's entries is really too small~www.mtlnovel.com~ There are only three regular events at the level, and the US Open, Imperial Capital and Shanghai Magic City are all there. This also means that if you want to compete with other players , the difficulty naturally doubles.
Huaxia Media can't wait to start calculating various possibilities:
In fact, Gao Wen is only about 1,000 points away from the top eight rankings, which is not as exaggerated as imagined. Therefore, if Gao Wen wants to make history and enter the year-end finals, there are two paths.
One is to participate in full attendance for three weeks, win all the championships in relatively low-level events in the first two weeks, and then advance to the semi-finals in the Masters.
One, choose one of the first two Tuesdays to participate, ensure excellent results, and then win the Masters.
Of course, Gao Wen needs to face a lot of competitors. Even if he does win the championship, Kei Nishikori, Dimitrov, Cilic, Murray, Raonic, Ferrer, etc. will directly compete. The performance of the opponents is also very important. Once they can achieve good results in the three-week competition, Gao Wen will still not be able to rank in the top eight.
To put it simply, the conditions are very, very harsh. Not only does Gao Wen need to fight for himself, but he also needs to look at his opponents. He needs to look at the other eight opponents at once, which is really a bit busy.
This math problem of addition and subtraction is not difficult. The media can figure it out clearly, and they naturally understand how difficult it is for Gao Wen to be shortlisted for the year-end finals.
However, there is still a dream, what if it really comes true?
Taking a step back, it doesn't matter if they can't realize it, at least they once had hope, and this little hope was an unattainable luxury just four months ago, and they didn't even dare to think about it, so, Now that they can daydream, the media are already very satisfied.
Hope is such a thing, even if it is just a "possibility", it is enough to make people feel excited.
