The loss of Daniil Mevedev in the Monte Carlo Masters 1,000, due to the positive in coronavirus that prevents him from participating in the tournament and that was unveiled this Tuesday, gives Rafa Nadal a chance to regain number two in the world rankings this week.
To achieve this, the Spaniard, who has 9,490 points after being subtracted 180 (half of the 360 that he won in 2019 as a semifinalist when he fell to the later champion, Fabio Fognini), must reach the final of the Rolex Masters to add 420 points and surpass the Russian, who accumulates 9,850 with the remainder of another 180, since he did not pass the quarters in 2019 either (Dusan Lajovic dropped him).
In this way, Nadal would reach 9,910, 60 more than Medvedev. And if he lifts the title, his account will stay at 10,310, 460 above the Muscovite, an interesting advantage facing the goal of reaching Roland Garros as second seed., an important aspect because that way he would surely avoid Djokovic until a hypothetical final without having to suffer in the draw for the pictures. In between would be the Barcelona tournaments, where he could add up to 320 points if he wins, Madrid (640) and Rome, where he was champion and would not accumulate anything if he participates, but he would lose 500 if he does not. Medvedev could also win a lot in those three tournaments: 200 at the Godó and 990 in each of the other two at the most.
