Frankly I find the scoring system a bit absurd.I dont see how Federer should lose a whooping 300 points just because he could not "defend"his Wimbledon title.Same 300 points awarded to Nadal,the winner.So if the maximum points was deducted from Fed,even at reaching the finals,how much would have been deducted if he lost at round 1? What exactly is "title defence"?.Should the same point deduction be exacted on a title defender irrespective of how far he advances in the tournament?If so then I find it unfair.For getting to the finals at all,Fed should not lose the maximum point obtainable for winning the event.Can some body educate me on the rationale for this huge point deduction?
