Previous: Trivia Notebook # 3
Get back for more trivia! Again, I thank all those who offered themes. In the comments here, on Twitter, etc.
Today we will look at the high-ranking Sans of Daniil Medvedev, we will consider what a good annual rating for Joao Fonseca and who will appear in the same tournament.
Daniil’s drought
Daniil Medvedev did not win a headline since 2023; He has not reached the final since India in 2024. Last year, last year, the open quarter of the open month was lost in Indian wells last month, the world’s sixth place. Now he fell from the top ten, but for two weeks, it has overlapped without a final in the previous 52 weeks.
Ie unusual:
The beginning of my reliable weekly ATP rating information since 1982, only a few people played only a few dozen players without a point in a final.
Only nine They clung to a point in the top 20.
Medvedev is not the first best tenner, but in Miami its rating is always “best”:
Rank Player Date 8 Daniil Medvedev 20250317 10 Fernando Gonzalez 20100301 19 Goran Ivanisevic 20020701 19 Lucas Pouille 20191014 20 John McEnroe 19921026 20 Gaston Gaudio 20060731 20 Andrei Medvedev 20000529 20 Petr Korda 19990125 20 Mardy Fish 20120813
.
Gonzo had seven semifinals, including Rome and Roland Garros. His last few rating position is the only person who is the approach of Medvedev (not) recently.
Fonseca company
I looked at the first 100 large rating leaps in the first trivia laptop. He is up to 59th and does not have many points to defend the rest of the year.
And it is so much 11th On the list of Elo. This is not guaranteed to climb so high in the ATP schedule, but it shows that it will not be 59 years.
One hundred points leaps to the top 50 because it turned out that it would not be a historic. Eric J followed to ask:
How high would be from its starting position for a historic interesting result?
Let’s say that the reference class for Fonseca consists of 120 to 180 players.
Player Year YE-Rk Next YE Gain Goran Ivanisevic 2000 129 12 117 Mikael Pernfors 1985 165 12 153 Andy Roddick 2000 156 14 142 Paradorn Srichaphan 2001 120 16 104 Fernando Gonzalez 2001 139 18 121 Henrik Holm 1991 131 19 112 Nicolas Jarry 2022 152 19 133 Jan Lennard Struff 2022 150 25 125 Jan Siemerink 1990 135 26 109 Milan Srejber 1985 121 27 94 Claudio Mezzadri 1986 138 28 110 Bohdan Ulihrach 1994 142 28 114 Dmitry Tursunov 2012 122 29 93 Francisco Cerundolo 2021 127 30 97 Tommy Robredo 2000 131 30 101 Michael Chang 1987 163 30 133
No one went to the top ten from a rating in this range. Fonseca has a chance to be the first.
Perhaps the more points will be harvested in Brazil to other teenagers. The majority of players in this list are young, but the concept of “ranking leaps” can be distracted by those who are really important.
Fonseca will be 19 at the end of the year. Here’s the last ten teenagers to finish a season in the last 20:
Player Year YE Rank Carlos Alcaraz 2022 1 Holger Rune 2022 11 Novak Djokovic 2006 16 Andy Murray 2006 17 Rafael Nadal 2005 2 Richard Gasquet 2005 16 Andy Roddick 2001 14 Lleyton Hewitt 2000 7 Andrei Medvedev 1993 6
Quite a good company. Again there is something in the next seven months or more. Elo is a good predictability tool, but the exact schedule It is tougher to get right. If Fonseca lives to expectations in the table, it will be in an elite company.
The defeats of the past and the future
I was rounded in February, I was full Suitable video Andy Murray’s open match against Arnaud Clement in 2005. Edo, took the match and saw the match schedule (now 1,700 characters) and the same tournament, the number one and old top dog Juan Carlos Ferrero was then.
Especially in retrospect, a very good run for the 91st ranked French. Unfortunately, he lost to Nikolas Kiefer in the third round.
It turns out that many players beat many (past, present or future) in the same tournaments. It is especially common in times of rolling with the number one position of several people: only a few more weak, more opportunities.
Let’s lower the settings to make it interesting. Several players like several players of the past and A number of one or future in the same incident, ranked out of the top 50?
Clement is one of 25 men to perform FEAT. But the French is a more unique case. He is one of the only two players – Slava Doseel and the other twice! A year after the US open run, he defeated Levelon Hewitt, Marat Safin and Murray again to win the Washington title again (by Edo).
Dosedel is the only person to make it on more than one surface. In 1996, Boris Becker and Carlos Moya won the winner of Munich winning Moya. Then in 1999, Jim Courier and Pat Rapter defeated the Adelaide event, which lost Hewitt before losing.
Clement and Docedel Both were both for this in the 27th, 24 samples for this.
The most impressive of all is a run that you are definitely heard. Goran Ivanisevic, in 2001, like a wild card of Wimbledon, with a victory against the former numbers, with the victory, moreover and the number one victory against the Past Numbers, and the number one victory. This single tournament – continues to respond to the trivia given to prevent Goran’s self.
See you next time!
