Rafa shines, Monday wouldn't be blue anymore...reclaims World No. 1

It was one of the demolishing feats achieved by Jimmy Connors back in 1977, when he stayed at top of the world ATP rankings for a consecutive 160 weeks! Swedes were never at peace with what went at the top, complying to which Bjorn Borg displaced the American for the first place for just a week, if not which would have led to the making of the current world record (Because Connors owned a 84 weeks World No. 1 post that). Roger Federer who lit a glowing streak of 237 weeks, was finally sent off by the ravishing Nadal who lasted 48 weeks, there in. Well I have begun this way because the situations toady, on a Saturday sound and echo similar. Last week Novak completed his 100 weeks in total to stay in the top notch of this game called tennis, but will be overtaken by Rafael Nadal, who won over Thomas Berdych, today at the China Open in Beijeing. Prodigy brings, that even if Novak defeats Richard Gasquet today in the Semis and defends the title successfully tomorrow against the Spaniard, Monday reinstates Rafa as the world No.1, such are the juxtapositions of the ATP rankings.
Heartfelt congratulations to the 27 year old Spaniard, who will begin his 103rd week with that on his name.
