Nadal vs. Djokovic again on Sunday...?

Question

Does anyone know if it is possible for Nadal to lose the number 2 spot if he loses this match?

Answer 1

this match wont give djokovic da number two spot

but it wil bring him closer if he wins

Answer 2

It's hard to say. Both are playing the best tennis of their lives at the moment. Nadal is on Cloud 9 right now, just coming off a fourth consecutive French Open title and a absolute rout of World #1 Roger Federer, he's just riding "The Zone Wave" right now and is pretty much on cruise control. His confidence has never been better, he's just beat two great grass-court specialists; grass, clay or ice; he's extremely tough to beat right now for anybody. Djokovic technically on paper has the better game suited for grass, but Nadal has beaten him in their only grass court meeting, although Djokovic was supposedly not at his physical best and had to retire...and although Djokovic has started to edge Nadal on hardcourts, mentally, the situation here is quite different than it was in Indian Wells a few months ago. In simple terms, it's a tossup. But I give the slight edge to Nadal. 60 to 40. And this is coming from a hardcore Fed fan, so you know my opinion's completely objective as I'm not really the greatest of supporter of either of these two.

Answer 3

nadal would still be number one

Answer 4

i dont think the number two spot is on the line here unlike in the FO semis where Djokovic would have overtaken Nadal

Answer 5

Nadal will keep the #2 spot after tomorrow. But the gap will be lesser than before

Answer 6

i think it comes down to points which is how each player is ranked so i doubt it cos nadal will have a lot more points as he is always winning the clay competitions
