I hope federer will have something to say about that

^ Oh, I'm sure he will.

Don't get me wrong. Now that Roddick is done, I'd love to see Murray win it all, but unless Davydenko somehow manages to squeak by Fed (yeah right), it's just not happening.

From the Djokovic website

Rafael Nadal failed in attempt to defend the title at the first Grand Slam tournament of the season, which gives Novak chance to secure position no.2 in the ATP Rankings already tomorrow.

After the defending champion Rafael Nadal retired in his quarter-final match of the Australian Open, he will lose 1640 points, so he will have 7670 points on Monday, which is 640 less than the best Serbian tennis player.

Novak is currently world no.3 with 8310 points, and if we do not count the outcome of tomorrow's match, the Serb will have the same number of points on Monday because he defended quarter-finals from Melbourne 2009.

For Novak to become no.2, one of the following situations needs to happen:

- Novak needs to beat Tsonga (in this case no.2 position in the ATP Ranking List is secured)
-If he loses to Tsonga, and Murray doesn’t win the title

If Murray wins the title, and Novak loses to Tsonga, the Brit will be no.2, while Novak will remain in third place.

The Serb could become the best player on the planet after the Australian Open! That could happen if he wins the title and reigning no.1 Roger Federer fails to reach the semi-finals.

Good luck Nole!

10th time lucky for Djokovic?

seriously speaking mate, why do you dislike Murray?, he plays a great tactical tennis, and that´s not easy

He hit 35 winners against nadal that proves he is being more agressive.

He even serve and volleyed! where in the hell did that come from? :shock:

When he was young, like 2005 etc and coached by mark petchey (LMAO) he was quite a agressive player.

He's not really my favorite player because it just hurts me to watch him, his technique (ESPECIALLY on the FH side) is just awful for a pro. He can finish points at the net I guess, but he really looks out of place up there and frequently bricks easy volleys. He wins despite his strokes, not because of them, and that's kinda boring to watch IMO

This just in.

If Roger loses verse davydenko, and djokovic wins the tournament, then...

djokovic becomes number 1 and hell freezes over :shock:
