2011 Live Tennis Coverage Ends
Novak Djokovic finishes season 2011 as World No. 1!
Thank you for following tennis season 2011 live online with us. The World Tour Finals have completed an excellent season that ended with a fresh ATP leader. Novak Djokovic is the surprise of the year. The Serbian star managed to finish for the first time in history a season as World No. 1. He did not show any serious signs of not being able to defend his crown in 2012. Djokovic won 3 Grand Slam events and 5 Masters Series events to complete and incredible season. Congratulations!
Rafael Nadal couldn’t repeat the excellent year that he had in 2010 and has to accept yet another season end as World No. 2. The Spaniard has now 2 years of World No. 1 and 4 of World No. 2, an amazing performance at such an young age. Rafa won a single Slam this season, his favorite, the Roland Garros. He lost two Finals against Djokovic, at Wimbledon and at the US Open. More, he also lost a series of Masters Series 1000 finals against the same player at: Indian Wells, Miami, Madrid and Rome. The only Masters that he won was in Monte Carlo.
Roger Federer played his worst season since becoming a tennis star. Even the exceptional finish couldn’t help him to save the year. Federer’s only tournaments won in 2011 where in Basel, Paris and London, the final tournaments of the year. He just managed to clinch the 3rd spot of the ATP rankings and records his lowest ranking in 9 years. Can he recover in 2012?
Andy Murray had a good year which could have been his best with a little bit of luck and no injuries. He lost one more Grand Slam final. His 3rd one, against Novak Djokovic. The previous 2 where lost against Federer. Murray grabbed 2 Masters Series events and finished the year just behind Federer after staying for several weeks on the 3rd spot ahead of the Swiss star. He certainly can improve in 2012!
