CAMELOT FANTASIES

Super post General.  Speaking of older players, little Ferru just won his 5th title of the year, an ATP 500 event in Vienna, even though an elbow injury cut out his play for a couple of months after the French Open.  He must have put in a lot of hard yards at his age to get his fitness back after being out.

Here's another stat for you.  Do you know that David Ferrer is the best returner on tour in 2015?  Not Djokovic, not Murray, not Nadal (in a stat he used to own), but Ferrer.

He leads in total return points won pct. - 43.4% to Djokovic's 42.9%.  He leads in first serve return (34%), and is third (56%) in second serve return points won, right behind Djokovic (57%) and Murray (56%).

His problem is serve. First serve points won, especially, ranked only #51.  Second serve points won, is better, #16.

Well, no wonder, he stands only 5'8.  Think what kind of player he might have been with another few inches in height.

Even so, he is still ranked in the top 8 as he plays in his 34th year.   Kudos to Ferru and his workman ethic.

Respectfully,
