Will Nadal become ranked no. 1 in the world if he wins the US Open this August/September?

Question

Assuming Federer doesn't reach the final round....

Answer 1

If federer's lead over nadal is around 545 all nadal has to do is win or reach the final.

Answer 2

If it's scored like Wimbledon, since Federer won last year, they'll have at least a 600 point swing.  That'd make Nadal #1.

Answer 3

Definitely. Rafa purses 850 points.  Roger loses 1,000 pt. Rafa is 545 pt from Roger now. Next Monday, Rafa will be795 behind, because of his Stuttgart exit. Quick math: Rafa,1055 pt ahead, # 1.
