If you include a certain Czeck lady, no. But are you thinking of somebody else?

Nadal is 56 weeks behind Federer in total weeks in the top 10.

Ah, non-consecutive. Txs for that data.

I wasn't surprised. Federer was 20 when he first reached the top ten and 40 when he last dropped out. Nadal's only 36. He just needs to get back in the top 10 and stay there for 13 months (non-consecutive) to catch Federer. Not looking so easy for Nadal these days, though.

He'd have to start winning a lot again. Not in the top 100 in the race.

It has been one injury after another. I don't see him being able to return to a full time schedule.
But he has few points to defend after RG (Only his Wimby semifinal, mostly).

We have been waiting for a long time for him NOT to be able to win it.
But I don't think his chances have ever been lower than this year. We have to wait and see how he shows up at MC.

He got points from last year's Wimbledon :?:

Corrected. As it was indeed pointed that he (and nobody else) got no points from last year's W.

Ruud is a very good clay court player. We have to see what shape Nadal comes back in. Novak has done well there. Tsitsipas loves clay. Clay is the favorite surface of a lot of players.
Let's get a couple of clay tournaments in and then we can gauge it properly

We have had a little bit of a conversation about rankings. I decided to do a simple calculation: what is the frequency in which the higher ranked player beats the lower ranked player?

Just did the last 4 years. Higher ranked player wins first, lower ranked wins second, % of higher ranked wins third.
ATP
2019: 1603, 1007, 61.4%
2020: 803, 464, 63.3%
2021: 1563, 926, 62.7%
2022: 1686, 946, 64.1%

WTA
2019: 1571, 901, 63.6%
2020: 664, 391, 62.9%
2021: 1587, 860, 64.9%
2022: 1489, 880, 62.9%
