MADRID, Spain - Stan Wawrinka has an outside shot at doing something very,
very big at the Mutua Madrid Open this week - something no one outside the
Big Four has done in almost 12 years.

If Wawrinka wins the Masters 1000 tournament and Novak Djokovic loses before
the quarterfinals, Wawrinka will move past Djokovic for the No.2 ranking,
which would be a new career-high for him.

But there’s more.

Wawrinka would be the first non-Big Four player in the Top 2 since the week
of July 18, 2005.

The Big Four has had a total monopoly on the Top 2 since the week of July 25,
2005.

That’s right, no one other than the Big Four - Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal,
Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray - has been ranked inside the Top 2 on the ATP
World Tour rankings since the week of July 18, 2005. Lleyton Hewitt was No.2
that week, and Nadal bumped him out the week after.

If Wawrinka doesn’t do it this week, there’s still hope for him at Roland
Garros, where Djokovic will be defending title points (and Wawrinka semifinal
points). They both lost early at Wimbledon last year.

But the window could be closing with Federer and Nadal both surging back
towards the top of the rankings right now. Could one of them jump past
Wawrinka to keep the Big Four’s Top 2 streak alive?

For now, though, all eyes are on Madrid. Djokovic and Wawrinka will play
their opening matches on Wednesday, with Djokovic facing Nicolas Almagro and
Wawrinka taking on Benoit Paire.

大意是說小卡如果馬德里奪冠且Djokovic在八強前被淘汰

小卡的積分就會超過Djokovic成為新的世界第二

從2005年7月18日那週以後，就沒有Big4以外的人到達過Top2(整整快12年也是有夠扯...)

期待小卡的表現！馬德里沒成功突破法網也很有機會超車~~

Big4能夠再次守住嗎?!!
