I wanted to argue with you about Rublev but I really can't.

Rafa never does well at this event no matter where it's held.

Stefanos, FAA, Medvedev, Fritz (he is an American. Indoor fast should favor him if he holds it together mentally) and yes the brat Rune.

Hmm. Would you say he's Cilic like or Isner like?

He is quicker than Isner, but then he doesn't have a serve as good, either! Nobody does...

I didn't realize that Holger Rune's stay in the top 10 would be so brief. A year ago this week he made the semis of a Challenger event in Pau, France, and those points are coming off this week - a net loss of 23 points - allowing Hubert Hurkacz to finish the year in the top 10.

Unfortunate that he couldn't finish the year in the top 10, but of course he'll get back at the latest after AO (nothing to defend).

Plus, seeding-wise it makes no difference being 10 or 11.
He will be back soon, and likely for a long time.

Well, you keep a 9 time champion out of the AO then don't count the major he does win, naturally you will get a new #1!

Carlos is #1.
Who is the best player is a different question, this year.

Yes, of course, #1 is a fact, pure data - pointless to dispute it! But it is a different question, as you rightly note, than who is the best player- I would submit that is a much more interesting question, because we can argue about it! No point arguing about facts.

After the Finals are over, and because we will need that data to gauge our views, I will start a topic about that.
Because there is a lot to talk about this year.
