Your suspicion of a is correct. B = Wimbledon 2010 (Berdych played Nadal)

Thought so re: Potro.
But waaa - is Nadal outside the top 4? Doubt it. Meant a final without Djokovic, Federer, Nadal or Murray mate.

Misread the question, thought it was only one person not in the top 4. It was AO 2005, ftr.

Geez thats ages ago. You'd be brave to think that the streak will anytime soon too.

I mean it is the point of the season where no one cares, but what an amazing run from Janowicz in Paris. I suspect he'll get beaten by Ferrer, but he's jumped to No. 26 in the world and could go as high as No. 22.

Good on Ferrer for finally winning a Masters 1000. Yes he won it with no Rafa and Fed, and Murray and Novak tanking or semi-tanking because the World Tour Finals in London is next week, but that is exactly what makes Ferrer such an admirable player. The big 4 are not a threat and so he takes advantage and doesn't let this opportunity slip. What a gun.
He may be fit enough anyway to not let his run affect him too much in London, and he deep down probably knows he's not winning London anyway whereas this Paris tournament was a golden opportunity.

Djokovic - ends the season as World Tour Champion (beating Fed) and #1 ranking. Brilliant. What a legend he is.
Great tournament from Fed and Murray too, and really, great years from both of them.
Fantastic year of tennis overall (with the Davis Cup final still to come next week) with each one of the big 4 winning a major.
Watch our for Juan Martin Del Potro next year, came storming home late in the year and really should have made the World Tour final instead of Nole. Had him on the ropes and couldn't put him away. Also it will be interesting to see if Ferrer can keep competing in literally every tournament he plays next year like he did this year. Was a great year for the little Spanish bull.

No surprise to hear Fed complaining about court speed after his loss. No complaints in 2010 and 2011 when he won though.
Federer wants faster courts to encourage attack - Yahoo! Sports
Brad Gilbert on Twitter agreeing with me, curious timing for Fed. Couldn't wait a few days.

Gilbert, Cronin, Bodo and Harman. The Big Four.
But yeah it comes across as a bit self-serving.
Anyway, waiting for proper doping tests.

Such massive muppetry at display by Fedex yesterday. Had money on Novak 2-1 at 3.75 and Federer 2-1 at 5.00. Thought I could go to sleep at 4 am when Federer was a set down and 5-3 in the second set.
Was raging so hard when I woke up and saw 7-5 Novak. Federer WAC.

Just a tad unfair on Fedex... he did say that he was happy with that particular court. Just said that in general, courts these days are slow to please crowds who love long rallies... and he has a point.
Shouldntve said it right after the loss though

The guy is deadset the biggest dickhead. WAC. Can **** off and do one, tbh, no way I want him representing this country.

are there people who actually take him seriously when he makes these ridiculous assertions and excuses?

Typical of Nadal, more than happy to play when he's beating up nobodies, but when a real champion like Novak comes along he has a cry and fakes an illness to protect his 'legacy'.
he will probably still sleep-walk through and win the french but the rest of the season is a big question mark for rafa....good chance for delpo to become the new member of the big four...

Not really.
I don't think he is a lock for the French Open, and I agree with the rest of your statement. It is all downhill for him from here.
Good article about the possibilities of the rest of Rafa's career here:
