Nadal said today that for the same problem he had at the Australian Open, he had to skip the tournament of Acapulco and miss the "Master 1000" tournaments in Miami and Indiana Wells.
Wawrinka will also not be in these 2 tournaments.
Djokovic has stated that he will most likely play Indiana Wells and will surely play in Miami!

I hope Wawrinka and especially Nadal will be 100% ready for Roland Garros. The way Nadal played last year on Roland Garros, without losing any set was fabulous.
Anyone knows when Murray will be back in competition ?

I hope so as well because we need the best tennis players playing. It would be a shame for the French Open if Nadal misses due to this injury he picked up in the Australian Open. If these top players miss the French Open then it opens up the door for Federer to win his second French Open unless one of the up coming young talents can knock him off.

I think Murray will be out almost all season from what I heard.

Without top players, the tournament will not be more interesting and this is becoming an advantage for Federer to reach finals without struggling too much against new players. Murray matter i don't know when he will be back.

Yeah I agree, it will be like the Australian Open however it will be a lot worse if Nadal can't play as at least he did play in the Australian Open. I think the forgotten player is Novak Djokovic who at the moment seems to be facing a mental battle with himself. If he can get himself right, then he can be a main contender for sure and challenge Federer.

It would open the door for Federer to yet win another grand slam but clay is not his favorite underground. I think he will struggle to win against those young talents such as Zverev, Thiem,...

ITF is planning to revolutionize the Davis cup format.
the idea is to create a world championship with 18 national teams to play in just one week and in one location.
There would be groups and then quarter-finals semifinals and final.
The new davis cup could be disputed in November 2019.
with this format the participation of all the top players is more likely!

Nadal did not participate in the tournament in Acapulco because he still has pain in his leg.
Nadal had to defend 300 points (final of last year).
So Federer will increase his lead over Nadal to 600 points:
Federer 10060 Nadal 9460

Nadal performed extra ordinarily well in the last clay season and he has to do it all again to stay in No.1 race . I am sure at this point he won't be aiming for No.1 rather he will be working on coming back in top form just like Djokovic . I wish to see all top 4 again in full form before Federer retires.

Moving on to the current tournaments going on to mark the unofficial start of spring.

Acapulco Mexico Open match:
Dennis Shapovalov vs. Dominic Thiem

Who do you think is in better form going into this tournament?
He did beat Ken Nishikori to get there to meet up with Dominic T. who just lost in Rio to Verdasco. So he doesn't have momentum on his side going into this match. Embarrassed

Can Dennis Shap keep going like he did last year during mid-summer where he beat top players to reach his first finals against the best in the ATP?
I have high hopes for him this year as well.

Congratulations to the great Roger Federer on creating history by becoming the oldest player to become No.1

(Breaking Agassi record ) . I doubt that he will finish the year end as no.1 though as he might skip the clay season but its such a great achievement . What a time to live.

Federer after reaching the first place, will now want to reach the 100 tournaments won in career possibly other slam tournaments!
However, he could still remain many weeks in first place at least until he is 37 years old because Nadal will lose all the points he won last year in the "red" season while Federer not having played those tournaments can even increase his advantage.

I don't think Federer will play much on clay this season. Has there been some announcements from his camp?

I am expecting him to skip all smaller tournaments and possibly play only RG and maybe one of ATP 1000 series events.

Yes, Federer will most likely not play clay tournaments (maybe just the Roland Garros) but he does not have to defend points. Nadal has won almost all the clay tournaments and therefore has to defend many points.
If nadal does not repeat the fantastic last season Federer also not playing those tournaments will increase his advantage!

Seriously maintaining form and becoming number one in Tennis game that too in this age it is great and unbelievable congratulation Federer. we are just at the beginning of 2018 so for me also it's doubtful that he can maintain his position throughout the year. no words to say about his achievement.

H e has done very well and despite his age he is really playing and even outplaying who are way younger than him and by setting this record, I am sure he wouldn't really mind if he doesn't end the year as the World Number One.

I think getting to number one is his main goal this year. And since he has met it already, I'm sure that we will not push his body just to maintain the position. Its gonna be high risk for him, probably he might go back and choose the tournament that he will be entering. Its gonna be hard to maintain number one, he has achieved so much in the sports and that its gonna be hard to duplicate was he has done.

And also with regards to his age, he needs time for himself or else f he overexerts himself, He is going to get injured or maybe something more serious might happen.

He is very clever when it comes to maintaining himself . He won't play clay season obviously because that's strains him too much .
Also many congratulations to him for winning his 97th career ATP title. What an achievement.

Congrats to Roger Federer for winning the Rotterdam Open title, He beat Grigor Dimitrov in two sets by 6-2 6-2 to win his 92nd title of his career. He is so much on fire.

Congrats to Federer for winning another title, it was a one sided match with Federer coming on top. Lets hope that he can keep his momentum going for a long time

.

they say that Federer have broke 50 records as a tennis player no one have. He was the first player to broke the 10,000 points in the rankings for the first time since 2012.And he is the first player in history to achieve 97 titles in all categories (Grand Slam, Masters, 500 points, 250 points) Nadal will need to win the next to win the next Competition yo keep the gap if not the gap between them two will be widened. Him and Nadal are the current greatest El Matador cannot get back to the top of rankings only after middle of March and that if he recovers and wins some cups in time.

I don't think anybody can beat Federer's record in near future except Nadal. I feel that if Nadal cannot surpass 20 grandslam record then no other player in the next 20-30 years will be able to do that and I am pretty sure about it .
