No to troche krzywdzace Ferrera stwierdzenie. Przeciez historia (nawet ta najnowsza) zna przpadki gdzie 1 wynik wiosny nie czynil, zarowno Baghdatis po finale Ao czy Johansson po wygranej w tymze turnieju nie zakwalifikowali sie do Masters Cup ( Thomas zagral wprawdzie 1 mecz ale zastapil kontuzjowanego Agassiego).

Nie ma opcji zeby dzieki jednemu polfinalowi Ws od razu zabukowac sobie 6 miejsce w rankingu , na to trzeba zapracowac a wyniki Ferrera w tym roku sa swietne i w pelni pokazuja ze zasluguje na bilet do Szanghaju.

W: Auckland, Bastad, Tokyo
SF: Barcelona, US Open
QF: Umag, ATP Masters Series Indian Wells, Rotterdam, ATP Masters Series Monte Carlo, ATP Masters Series Hamburg, ATP Masters Series Cincinnati

3 wygrane turnieje (zazwyczaj dobrze obsadzone) , 2 polfinaly (Barcelona to tez giga turniej - int series gold) , 4 cwiercfinaly turniejow z serii MS + Rotterdam (takze int series gold - ale ranga ciut meijsza niz Barcelona).

No nie moge sie zgodzic ze 1 turniej dal mu awans - wyniki naprawde robia wrazenie.

Shanghai, China – Nikolay Davydenko has clinched a berth at the Tennis Masters Cup and will be making his third straight appearance at the prestigious circuit finale, to be held at Shanghai’s Qi Zhong Stadium from November 11-18. The Russian, currently No. 4 in the ATP 2007 Race, joins Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic as singles players to have secured their places in the elite eight-man field with three weeks remaining in the regular ATP season.

Davydenko claimed his first title of 2007, also his 11th career ATP title, by successfully defending the Kremlin Cup on Sunday in Moscow. Though it marked his first appearance in an ATP final this season, the 26-year-old is on course to finish in the Top 5 for the third consecutive year after posting stellar results at Grand Slam and ATP Masters Series events. He opened his Grand Slam campaign by reaching the Australian Open quarterfinals, and followed with semifinal finishes at Roland Garros and the US Open. Davydenko also advanced to the semifinals at the ATP Masters Series events at Rome and Cincinnati and the quarterfinals in Canada.

“I’m really happy to qualify for the Tennis Masters Cup Shanghai for the third consecutive year,” said Davydenko. “It’s important for me to know that I’m one of the eight best tennis players in the world for the third year. This is very important for me and my career. I want to finish in the Top 5. I think that if I get lucky and play well, I can win this year.”

Davydenko reached the semifinals in his Tennis Masters Cup debut in 2005, falling to eventual champion David Nalbandian. Last year, he went 1-2 in round robin play.

He said: “I really love to play in China. The organization and the crowd at Shanghai are so good.”

The top seven players in the ATP 2007 Race and the top seven teams in the Stanford ATP Doubles Race following the BNP Paribas Masters qualify for the Tennis Masters Cup, with one spot reserved for Grand Slam champions finishing within the Top 20.

Jasne, te 450 pkt to był niesamowity zastrzyk do klasyfikacji, ale wygrana w Tokio i zdobyte tam kolejne 250 pkt (sporo, bo i wysoka pula nagród) pozwoliły przesunąć mu się tak wysoko w rankingu. Jednakże przed nami jeszcze kilka turniejów, zobaczymy czy się utrzyma w ósemce grając w hali.

Masz racje przesadzilem z tym stwierdzeniem. Nie spojrzalem na jego wyniki w tym roku, a po prostu nie pamietalem o jego osiagnieciach w tym roku

ATP Tour - Murray still hopes to reach Masters Cup

Eurosport - Mon, 15 Oct 11:07:00 2007

Andy Murray believes he can still claim a place in the season-ending Masters Cup as the British number one heads into his Madrid Masters opener against Radek Stepanek.

* Madrid Masters preview
* Drawsheet

Murray, currently 19th in the ATP Race, is chasing one of four remaining places in the season-ending championships in Shanghai.

Though he had a strong start to 2007, Murray's season was derailed by a wrist injury suffered in May that caused him to miss two months from the ATP Tour including both the French Open and Wimbledon.

"I was in with a good shot of getting in there before I injured myself in Hamburg," Murray said.

"Now I'm quite far behind in the race, but I think if I have a good end to the year then I have a good chance and to play in the Masters Cup would be a dream for me."

Nikolay Davydenko added his name to those of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic after securing his place in Shanghai by successfully defending his Moscow title over the weekend.

With four places left Murray trails the current number eight in the race Tommy Haas by 62 points.

If he has any hope of reaching Shanghai the 20-year-old Scot will have to fare incredibly well and possibly win one of the two remaining indoor Masters events in Madrid and Paris.

Murray's road begins with a first-round match against the tenacious Czech Stepanek, who has climbed 97 ranking places to 30th in the world since July.

"It's a tough match. Stepanek played really on the American hardcourt stretch, obviously won a tournament in LA, had a really good match with Djokovic at the US Open and his ranking is back around 30 now so he is playing well," Murray said.

Murray's recent form gives him cause for optimism, though, after he reached the last round in Metz two weeks ago - his first ATP final since February.

But the road through the Madrid Masters and to a possible Masters Cup berth will not be easy for the Scot, who is drawn against second seed and 2005 champion Rafael Nadal if he manages to make it as far as the third round.

Cos mi sie wydaje, że Gonzalez straci miejsce w 8. W Madrycie ma finał do obrony, co przy jego formie i układzie drabinki jest niemozliwe. Do tego dochodzi Bazylea i też obrona finału. Utrzymanie się do Sznaghaju bedzie bardzo trudne.
Mam jeszcze nadzieje, ze Blake sie zmoblizuje i te ostatnie turnieje potraktuje poważnie. W końcu w madrycie może tylko zyskać i traci tylko 2 punkty do Haasa.
Sprawa 7 i 8 m-ca jest jeszcze otwarta. A ja tam bym obsadziła Blake'a i Gasqueta

Na szczescie Blake ma raczej latwiej sie zakfalifikowac do turnieju niz Gonzalez. Gonzo w tej formie nawet nie moze pomarzyc na temat obrony tych finalów. A Blake ( cale szczescie ) rok temu w Madrycie odpadl juz w swoim 1 meczu wiec raczej ciezko bedzie mu tu starcic punkty ). Pozatym w Paryzu nie bylo duzo lepiej, wiec naprawde James masz szanse!!! A Roberdo?? Nie zapominajmy o nim w koncu on ma 1 punkt starty do Hassa wiec on tez sie liczy. W Madrycie tez mu nie poszlo za dobrze ( jeden mecz wiecej wygral niz Blake ), w Petersburgu od razu odpadl, ale w Paryzu doszedl do 1/2 wiec daleko i ciezko bedzie to obronic. Ale gdzie Roberdo jeszcze bedzie gral w tym sezonie??

ATP Tour - Roddick books Masters Cup berth

American number one Andy Roddick became the fifth player to qualify for the season-ending Masters Cup in Shanghai after his rivals for a place failed to advance at this week's Madrid Masters.

It is the fifth time Roddick has qualified for the prestigious tournament although he missed the 2005 edition through injury.

Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Nikolay Davydenko have already booked their places at the elite eight-man tournament.

Roddick, who won titles at Washington and the Queen's Club this year, has been out of action with a foot injury but is scheduled to return in Lyon next week.
