HOW DOES IT WORKS?
WHO CAN SIGNUP FOR THIS TOURNAMENT?
I WOULD TO KNOW IF I CAN BE IN...
THX :wink:

by **The_Hoff78** » Mon, 26 Oct 2009 14:44

No you cant.

Its the season ending Champs and its for the top 8 players.

by **Q. Reese** » Mon, 26 Oct 2009 14:46

Any one can sign up for this championship. However, only the top eight players in the world will be able to enter it.

There will be a blue and red group (as ITST does every year; or, if they change the color, there will be two groups).

The top 2 players in each group will advance to the semi-final. Oh, you usually get 20 points each for winning the round robins (RR). I may be a bit higher this year?

That is pretty much how it goes mate. :wink:

The top 8 are the ones that can qualify, on race rankings i think

by **Q. Reese** » Mon, 26 Oct 2009 14:58

Yes. Many can enter, but few will get in (only the top eight). Also, you may get in if you are one of the reserved players (9th-10th).

it´s based on the race ranking, so at the moment these 8 players are qualified

1 djarvik (USA)
2 brgerflipr (USA)
3 pink moozipan (Germany)
4 fedfan (England)
5 the_cooler618 (USA)
6 The_Hoff78 (Wales)
7 kiensabeq (Spain)
8 Josenylund (Finland)

but there are 2 tournaments in progress, Generali Ladies Linz and the Kremlin Cup... ranking could be a bit different after that.
if someone of these 8 doesn´t play, Tuporaky (11) has the best chances to play at the moment

yeah, I think you got the line up just fine.

BTW - my pick is Josenylund. If you haven't played him, you should. Fantastic player....I think I will pull a Safina on this one :oops:

....just not enough time to practice.

The top 8 are based on the entry ranking. But as we get closer to the end of the year, the race and entry rankings will become the same.

The race ranking is no longer used for anything.

well this year the race ranking is still used for it, maybe they change it next year

by **Rob ITST** » Mon, 26 Oct 2009 16:18

Yeah, it seems you are right. Where can you find the race ranking? I don't even see it anywhere on the ATP site.

by **pink moozipan** » Mon, 26 Oct 2009 16:32
