Davis cup

2012-02-18T05:30:00.001-08:00

The Davis cup is a fun and interesting event. It is the only time in the year that some of the best players gather with country mates to play a team event. My winning pick is the united states but with so many more rounds and Teams to be played it is an open race for everybody. But the only reason I do not choose Spain is because of Marc Lopez who is ranked 1167 in singles which could be key to make sure he does not play any singles too often.Also do not forget about Austria.

Berdych wins the open sud du France

2012-02-05T18:01:00.000-08:00

Thomas Berdych steals the french trophy from frenchman Gael Monfils. Berdych put himself in a final spot in the deciding match after a 6-3 6-4 cruising into the finals win over the seventh seed Germany's very own phillip kolschreiber. It will be a boost of confedince for berdych especially because of beating third seeded frenchman Gael Monfils.

scottsdale getting even hotter

2012-02-05T07:50:00.000-08:00

Spencer Levin is holding a six shot lead at the waste managment pheonix open in Scottsdale. On friday he shot a 8 under par 64. Spencer is not the only player that has a great shot at victory even with a six shot advantage, many dangereuos players lerk only a few shots back. Phil Mickelson who had a decent round with only one highlight on his day with a rolled in putt near the middle of the round. Bubba Watson is only 7 shots behind don't count Bubba out. Bubba Watson had a few highlits to a round of 4 under but one of the bigger highlits wasn't even a golf shot. Ben Crane and Bubba Watson singing infront of a crowd going nuts on the sixtenth hole infront of more than 15,000 people. Many others with good chances but will Levin be able to hold his nerves?

Wozniacki loses no.1 spot

Kevin Anderson is a totally different world From some players he is the 30 seeded player in the ATP rankings. He is a young but very talented just like milos and tomic,dimitrov and young but even tough he does not play as much as Them does not mean he is not any better than them. His game is consistent and he has already proven to us that he Can play tennis very very well. Will he do well this year? Well some people put him in there top 10 after this Year.

Is milos the clear favorite in 2012

2012-01-11T15:41:00.000-08:00

Milos raonic has gotten to no.25 in the ATP world rankings and is the first Canadian to ever get a ranking inside of the top 30 of the ATP singles rankings in history. Milos has two worldwide ATP tour events in his Career and he is only 21 years old! And the win just a few days ago in India against janko tipsarevic in the finals definitely Helped his chances of being a favorite for 2012, I guess we will just have to wait and see what happens for him in 2012. But don't forget the question: will milos be a clear favorite in 2012?

Milos wins no.2

Young talent no.6: rebeeca Marino rank: 64

2012-01-05T15:15:00.000-08:00

She is the top canadian women tennis player in the world and she is only 21 years old. As she has quite a few years ahead in her career she will hope to do better in next year's us open where in 2010 she made it to the second round and last year she lost her first match. Will she succeed in the near future?

2012-01-04T17:03:00.000-08:00

Young talent no.7: Kevin krawietz rank:332

2012-01-04T16:50:00.000-08:00

Kevin krawietz is an unknown player unless you are from Germany where he was born in coburg, Germany. He is only 19 years old. He might be a threat this year as I rank him 7 on the young talent list. Did you know that 12 time ATP tour singles winner Tommy hass is also from Germany as well. There are many good players from Germany but Kevin krawietz ranks 1 for best young players from germany.

No.8 young talent: vasek pospisil rank:119

2012-01-02T13:41:00.000-08:00

He is 21. Vasek does not play in ATP tour events that are singles but he does play in doubles ATP events and ifb tour events, and the best part about him (for Canadians) is that he is from canada.

Young talent no.9: Andrew Whittington Rank:962

2012-01-01T12:53:00.000-08:00

HE may be ranked 962 in the world on the ATP rankings list but he's 697 in the ATP doubles rankings list, and the best part is he is only 18 years old and he is from Australia. But he has an extremely bright future even tough he isn't ranked as high as he would like he is just getting started on a career as a tennis pro on the ATP tour. Well what else can I say, he is obviously a great young talent even tough there is alot of young talents on the tour. What will 2012 bring for him? Well let's find out.

Young talent no.10: grigori dimitrov rank: 76

2011-12-31T14:25:00.000-08:00

Grigori dimitrov hasn't won an ATP tour event in his career for that fact he hasn't even made it to a singles final on the ATP tour but he has made it to a doubles final on the ATP tour before. Although the Bulgarian knows his way around the court his world singles ATP ranking is in the top 100 to be exact he is ranked 76. He has a very bright future and could have one of thoose fantastic careers like federer, aggasi or nadal he just needs to give himself into a ATP tour singles final for a chance to win. Why have you haver heard of him? Well maybe because he hardly ever plays in an event on the ATP tour.

Who is really no.1 Djokovic,Ferrer,Nadal,Murray or Federer in 2012

2011-12-29T15:41:00.000-08:00

Djokovic: a fanominal year for him in 2011 but how will he bounce back next year? Well I think it won't be a great year for Novak next year because late in 2011 he started to struggle with his game
Ferrer: he has all the talent in the world to be number 1 but to be no.1 you have to do well in majors and doing well in majors is something that David ferrer has struggled with for his whole carrer but if he does well in majors in 2012 he will be a threat for no.1 in 2012.
Nadal:I think he will be world no.1 in 2012 we have seen him do it before. I think he will win 2 majors next year
Murray: the Scottish soul has a chance to be no.1 after 2012 but will have to have more wins than he did this year but it is possible but he will have to battle with some tough competitors next year
Federer: time is running out for him on the pro circuit as he is getting old it might be his last chance to get back to the no.1 spot
Rankings I think after 2012
1 Rafael nadal
2 Andy Murray
3 David ferrer
4 Jo-Wilfred-tsonga
5 Novak djokovic
6 simon Gilles
7 Nicholas alamargo
8 j.m. Del potto
9 Gael monfils
10 rodger federer
