Yes, you are on a roll for the moment... ATP overview will follow soon.

Good to see people win with uWP’s; kinda forces people to pick one too &#128512;.
One of the reasons that I pick them sometimes - to make life hard for those who like to play safe...

The rolling ranking had quite some changes, with the #1 going from Wannadoo75 to Graveller to Wannadoo75 to Graveller again.
And I expect some more changes (and other names) in the coming two months...

The Standings (changes since Wimbledon):

1. (+1) Graveller - 1404 pt
2. (-1) Wannadoo75 - 1392 pt
3. (-) Rex - 1319 pt

4. (-) Jeff in Texas - 1206 pt
5. (+2) Perdida - 1198 pt
6. (-1) Ace2Ace - 1177 pt
7. (+2) Themo - 1106 pt
8. (-) Pyotr - 1091 pt
9. (-3) 93tennisroyalty - 925 pt
10.(-) Padawan - 880 pt

11.(+1) Mytiwtiw - 809 pt
12. (-1) Anishmitch - 790 pt
13. (-) CrossCourtBH - 760



The race to the YE #1 is still close:
1. Graveller - 1221
2. Rex - 1203
3. Wannadoo75 - 1175
4. Perdida - 1172
5. Jeff in Texas - 1110
6. Themo - 1089
7. Ace2Ace - 1077
8. Pyotr - 1033

All others are below 1000 pt, and likely not to get to #1...
