No. 1 Rankings

Hi, @Dencod16: added info Nadal only need a semis to guarantee a number 1 ranking that was removed by IP 69.122.166.192. As I look at the Live Rankings, it seems to me that information was correct.

Nadal = 11,035 (max points/title) --> semis = 9,755 (11,035-1,280), in semis he earns 720 pts (2,000-720 = 1,280 lost)
Djoković = 9,720 (max points/title)

Double career grand slam

The article says Nadal can be first male player to win double career slam in open era. The same is true for Federer. Shouldn't he be mentioned as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.17.57.196 (talk) 13:16, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Federer can't complete a double career grand slam at the Australian Open, as he's only won the French Open once. Nadal is the only player that can complete this feat at the Australian Open this year. Edin75 (talk) 14:02, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Is the Nadal double grand slam info really necessary though? The only times I see such info are in this year's AO article, and the 2014 AO article (when Nadal made the final); other articles since 2009 AO make no mention of this fact.--Ui56k (talk) 06:49, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Double career grand slam

"Rafael Nadal had the chance to become the first male player in the Open Era to achieve a double career grand slam and to equal Roger Federer's all-time record of 20 Grand Slam men's singles titles, but lost in the quarterfinals to Dominic Thiem. As a result of Nadal's loss, Djokovic will regain the ATP no. 1 singles ranking if he defends his title."

there is no point of putting it as he was in the same condition since Australian Open 2014 and will be every time he plays the AO, although it isnt present on every Australian Open article — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2800:810:521:3:A0A0:7381:75FE:142F (talk) 16:50, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
