The four Grand Slams include Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon and US Open, and the nine masters are Indian Wells, Miami, Monte Carlo, Rome, Hamburg, Montreal/Toronto (rotation), Cincinnati, Madrid and Paris. In addition to the Grand Slam and Masters, only the five best events in other events (including the Golden Tournament and the International Tournament) are counted as points, which are called "the five best events". This system is used to determine the world ranking of players, so as to determine the qualifications and seeds of each competition. In the current ATP competition, except Wimbledon, the seed ranking of other competitions depends entirely on the world ranking, and Wimbledon should combine the results of grass competition to determine the seed ranking.
The champion ranking system is the points accumulated by players this season from the beginning of a season. It also includes players with only 65,438+08 points (65,438+09 points can qualify for the Masters Cup), which is the same as the world ranking. The main function of the champion ranking is to determine the finalists of the Masters Cup at the end of the year. Only the top eight players in the one-year 18 competition are eligible to enter the Masters Cup at the end of the year. But there is one exception, that is, the best Grand Slam champion of this season. If the champion ranks in the top 20, he will be automatically selected for the Masters Cup, so the player who ranks eighth will unfortunately not be able to participate in the Masters Cup.
For a simple example, Gao Diao won the French Open in 2004. Although he didn't rank in the top eight, he didn't fall out of the top 20, so he successfully squeezed out nalbandian and Agassi and was selected as the Houston Masters Cup.
There is also a certain correlation between the scores of world ranking and champion ranking. Generally speaking, the world ranking score of a game is five times that of the champion. For example, a grand slam champion's championship score is 200, while the world ranking score is 1000.
