The Fight For Number One In Professional Tennis
Because of the Aussie Open kicking off the new ’10 tennis season, the sport we love is finally back again. There are numerous competitors rounding out a field that finds itself much more saturated than it has happened to be in several years.
Gone are the times of Roger and Rafa Nadal dominating every single event. There are several additional pros on the men’s side of things who possess genuine chances any time a match commences.
While Roger and Nadal occupy the number one and two positions in the world, there are a few men who could end up the season ranked at the top. Why don’t we have a look at the leading potential heirs to the throne at this point.
Certainly, there is Roger Federer. He must always be considered the leading candidate to wind up at the top of the rankings, since he’s done this pretty much every single calendar year through the duration of the most recent few years. Still, his age of 29 reveals that he’s slowly beginning to age.
If Rafael Nadal could stay healthy, there is no basis to recognize the fact that he won’t end up there. Actually, numerous experts acknowledge the fact that he might have finished there in 2009 if he hadn’t been forced to miss Wimbledon due to his knee condition.
On the rise is the burgeoning twenty year old Juan Martin Del Potro, whose outstanding win at Flushing Meadows amazed lots of tennis addicts.

Rounding out the field are a pair of extra promising tennis players. Why don’t we have a glance at both of them.
Novak Djokovic is amongst these competitors who fans believed would probably be # 1 at some time, yet he hasn’t quite gotten there as yet. He’s a lot more grown up at his age of 23, and may possibly at long last possess both the physical and mental game to achieve his goal.
Lastly, there is Andy Murray. At the young age of 22, the English talent is on his way up and reached as well as #2 this past year. With a few major victories this season, he may well end up being this year’s dark horse.
