Q. What is the ATP Race?
A. The ATP Race is a calendar-year points race which reflects the performances of the world's best players in the current year. The Race determines the year-end world No.1 and which eight players qualify for Tennis Masters Cup.
Q. How does the ATP Race work?
A. Every Player, regardless of his performances in the previous year, starts with zero points. Players count 18 performances in their ATP Race total. Players eligible to enter the Grand Slams and ATP Masters Series events must count those events and their best five other results from the International Series events. The Tennis Masters Cup will count as an additional 19th tournament for the eight players who qualify.
Q. How does the South African Airways ATP Rankings work?
A. The South African Airways ATP Ranking is based on calculating, for each player, his total points from the 13 'mandatory' events - the four Grand Slams and the nine ATP Masters Series tournaments - and his best five results from all eligible International Series tournaments from the past 52 weeks. The Tennis Masters Cup counts as an additional 19th tournament for players who qualify for the circuit finale.
