NOTE FROM THE ATP 

EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN 

Dear Media and Fans, 

Welcome to the 2010 ATP World Tour season! It should be 

another exciting and action-packed year of tennis around 

the globe. 

The talent and depth of players on the ATP World Tour are 

at an all-time high. Last season 19 of the Top 20 players in 

the South African Airways ATP Rankings won at least one 

title. This year's ATP World Tour is comprised of 62 tournaments 

in 32 countries, as players compete for valuable ranking 

points at ATP World Tour Masters 1000, 500 and 250 

level tournaments in addition to the four Grand Slams. 

The season will conclude in November with the Barclays 

ATP World Tour Finals at The O2 arena in London, where the 

Top 8 singles players and doubles teams will battle it out for 

a chance to become the 2010 ATP World Tour Champion in 

singles and doubles. Last year over 250,000 fans attended 

the year-end championship, an all-time record for an 

indoor tournament. 

The 2010 Official Guide contains a wealth of player and ATP 

World Tour information that includes updated biographies 

on more than 125 players from more than 30 countries. 

Thank you for your continued coverage and support for 

men's professional tennis. We hope you enjoy the 2010 

ATP World Tour.

2010 PREVIEW 

A 

s the dust settles on what was a truly historic 

2009 season, the 2010 ATP World Tour is 

already promising another thrilling year of 

world-class tennis. 

Taking place across six continents, 32 countries 

and 62 tournaments, the 2010 ATP World Tour sees 

Roger Federer entering a new decade as only the second 

player in history – after Ivan Lendl in 1989 – to 

successfully reclaim the title of ATP World Tour 

Champion. Federer has finished No. 1 in five of the 

past six years. Rafael Nadal, the No. 1 in 2008, however, 

will be ready to revive one of sport’s most captivating 

rivalries as the Spaniard battles to regain the 

top ranking following an injury-plagued season. 

In 2009, Federer not only completed a career 

Grand Slam by winning at Roland Garros for the first 

time, but the Swiss superstar also succeeded in surpassing 

Pete Sampras’ record of 14 Grand Slam victories 

after clinching his 15th Grand Slam title at 

Wimbledon in July. 

While Federer continued to make history, it’s clear 

that the depth of talent in men’s tennis has never 

been stronger. Last season, no fewer than 19 of the 

world’s Top 20 players in the South African Airways 

ATP Rankings captured at least one ATP World Tour 

title. In addition there was an all-time record 90 

matches between Top 10 players. With the level of 

competition at its fiercest in recent memory, the players 

at the top of the game continue to cement their 

positions as global sporting stars. 

The 2009 season also saw the likes of Andy Murray 

and Novak Djokovic further prove their credentials as 

the most serious threats to the established dominance 

of Federer and Nadal. And despite a relative 

lack of experience, it was Juan Martin del Potro who 

proved to be last season’s big revelation. The heavyhitting 

Argentine announced his arrival at the top of 

the game by capturing his first Grand Slam title at the 

US Open. Del Potro’s impressive achievements now 

leave him poised to break into the Top 4 in 2010. 

Elsewhere, a handful of familiar faces will also be 

looking to make big impressions in the 2010 season. 

Nikolay Davydenko, who triumphed impressively at 

the inaugural Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, looks 

set to fulfill his potential at the Grand Slam level. Bigserving 

American Andy Roddick remains a constant 

threat after reaching his third Wimbledon final last 

year. Swede Robin Soderling and Spaniard Fernando 

Verdasco finished in the Top 10 for the first time 

while Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga put together his 

second straight Top 10 campaign. Other young players 

looking to challenge for major titles include another 

Frenchman Gael Monfils and Croat Marin Cilic. 

In doubles, the 2010 season will see Bob and Mike 

Bryan once again battle for supremacy against arch 

The foursome of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal (middle), 

Novak Djokovic (right) and Andy Murray (left) finished in 

the Top 4 South African Airways ATP Rankings for the 

second year in a row. 

rivals Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic. 

For the past two years, the battle for the year-end 

World No.1 doubles ranking has gone down to the 

wire in the final of the ATP year-end championships. 

After falling at the last hurdle in 2008, the Bryan twins 

triumphed last season as they came from behind to 

capture the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals and clinch 

the year-end No.1 title, all by a mere 90 ranking points. 

This season, the Bryan brothers will also have one 

eye on the Open Era doubles team title record. The 

Californian duo enters 2010 with 56 career doubles 

titles together, just five titles short of record 61 held 

by Todd Woodbridge and Mark Woodforde. 

The 2010 season will also bear witness to the 

ongoing development of the new ATP World Tour 

tournament structure. 2009 saw widespread stadia 

and infrastructure development taking place in leading 

cities including Madrid, Valencia, Beijing and 

Shanghai. As we keep working together with our 

tournaments to provide the most spectacular sporting 

stages, players and spectators alike will continue 

to benefit from further enhancements to tournament 

infrastructure across all tournament catergories. 

Finally, after welcoming more than 250,000 fans 

across eight days to the Barclays ATP World Tour 

Finals 2009, The O2 in London has already established 

itself as one of the most iconic and impressive 

venues on the ATP World Tour. Come November 

2010, The O2 will once again host our season-ending 

championships, as the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals 

returns to London for what will undoubtedly be 

another enthralling climax to the men’s professional 

tennis season.

ATP WORLD TOUR TIMELINE 

T 

he ATP World Tour is entering the fifth decade 

as part of professional tennis. The organization 

was formed in 1972 when a handful of the 

game's leading players met in a secluded stairwell at 

the US Open to discuss the need for a players' association. 

Under the leadership of newly elected executive 

director Jack Kramer and president Cliff Drysdale, the 

Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) came to life 

with a goal of changing the game for the better. 

Over the years, new tournaments, record-breaking 

levels of prize money and facility enhancements have 

made the sport entertaining to fans around the globe. 

There's been many highlights throughout the 

Open Era that the ATP has been part of and here's a 

look back in the past four decades: 

Among the highlights: 

1973: The ATP establishes the computer ranking system, 

providing a fair analysis of a player’s performance 

and creating an objective way to determine entries 

into tournaments. The ATP Rankings are introduced 

on August 23 with Ilie Nastase debuting at No. 1. 

Other actions include placing tournament representatives 

on the road and standardizing prize money distribution 

and the conduct and discipline code. The 

ATP shows it strength and sends message of player 

unity after players boycott Wimbledon to defend Niki 

Pilic's position against a Yugoslavian Federation suspension 

for missing a Davis Cup match. 

1974: The Men's International Professional Tennis 

Council (MIPTC), made up of ATP, ILTF and tournament 

directors, is formed to govern the sport as an 

“independent, democratic, international body for the 

administration of professional tennis.” 

1985: At the request of the ATP, MIPTC passes a 

Drug Testing Rule, making tennis the first professional 

sport to institute a workable and well-designed 

drug-testing program. 

1986: In an effort to make the calendar more coherent, 

the MIPTC moves the Australian Open a month 

back to January ('87) and the Masters a month earlier 

to December ('86). 

1988: The players, under ATP CEO Hamilton Jordan, 

hold a press conference in the US Open parking lot to 

announce that they will assume more control of the 

game. “Tennis at the Crossroads” outlines a plan for 

players to form a new tour in which they would play a 

major role and bear greater responsibility for the 

future of the sport. The idea is quickly embraced by 

the membership. Eighty-five of the Top 100 ranked 

players sign a letter of support for a new tour within 

weeks of the news conference. Tournament directors 

representing many of the world’s leading events voice 

their support for the players and join them in what 

was to become a partnership unique in professional 

sports – players and tournaments each with an equal 

voice in how the circuit is run. 

1989: All Top 50 players contractually agree to play 

the new ATP Tour in 1990. A new calendar is structured 

allowing for an eight-week off-season and tournaments 

are realigned. 

1990: Sponsored by IBM, the ATP Tour era begins 

with an equal partnership between players and tournaments. 

The circuit features 76 tournaments in 28 

countries on seven continents, with prize money averaging 

a 50% increase at the events. Indianapolis tournament 

director Mark Miles is named ATP CEO. 

1976: The ATP Doubles computer rankings begin on 

March 1 with Bob Hewitt at No. 1. 

1978: The Nations Cup, featuring eight competing 

nations, becomes the World Team Cup in Düsseldorf – 

the first ATP Championship. 

1979: Full-time MIPTC supervisors are employed on the 

men’s tour, and Penn becomes the official ball of the 

ATP. In a groundbreaking move, four young Chinese 

players compete in U.S. tournaments for the first time 

in over 21 years after being sponsored by the ATP. 

1980: The ATP sets up a player pension fund. 

1983: ATP membership approaches 500. 

1991: The first television package for men’s tennis 

broadcasts 19 tournaments to a worldwide audience. 

1993: The ATP Tour extends its global reach, adding 

Arabian Gulf tournaments in Doha and Dubai. Prize 

money continues to rise, increasing by 23%. 

1995: The ATP Tour launches its first ATP Web site, 

ATP Online, and further broadens its reach by enlisting 

the song “Bring It On” from pop star Seal, which 

he sings at the ATP Tour Awards Gala and Night of the 

Stars at the ATP World Championships in Hannover. 

1996: The Mercedes-Benz/ATP partnership begins 

with a four-year agreement. As the “Official Car of the 

ATP,“ Mercedes-Benz provides official transportation 

at ATP tournaments, showcases prominent car displays 

at tournament sites and positions its Mercedes- 

Benz ‘star’ signage on nets. 


ATP WORLD TOUR TIMELINE 

1997: The ATP Senior Tour of Champions is sanctioned. 

1998: Players form a new STARS program as the ATP 

Tour helps make players more accessible to media, 

sponsors and fans. ATP broadcasts extend their reach 

to more than 200 countries. 

2000: The ATP Tour changes its name to ATP for 2001, 

introduces a new logo and rebrands its nine premier 

tournaments the Tennis Masters Series. 

2001: A newly launched Web site, ATPtennis.com, 

highlights the new tournament structure. ATP 

Properties forms, instigating a more commercial focus 

and new marketing, licensing and broadcasting 

opportunities. 

2002: Players gain greater visibility with appearances 

in television shows and popular magazines, prompting 

the ATP to launch its own publication: DEUCE magazine. 

The ATP combines with the WTA Tour to create 

the “One Game” program, enacting initiatives to better 

serve professional tennis fans. 

2005: Etienne de Villiers is named ATP Chairman in 

June. ATP stars unite behind ATP World No. 1 Roger 

Federer to raise funds for tsunami victims, donating 

prize money and organizing the “ATP All-Star Rally for 

Relief.” At the exhibition, the ATP and UNICEF launch a 

global partnership called ACE, Assisting Children 

Everywhere. 

2006: De Villiers expands his role to become ATP 

Executive Chairman and President. The ATP signs several 

major new sponsorship agreements, including 

the naming of South African Airways as Official 

Airline. Stanford Financial Group becomes the Official 

Partner of ATP Doubles as doubles stars gain greater 

support and exposure through a promotional “ATP 

Doubles Revolution” campaign and new match format. 

The player challenge, utilizing video review for 

close line calls, debuts in Miami and is successfully 

implemented at 13 tournaments. 

2007: The ATP introduces enhancements to fan, 

sponsor, media and player experience at tournaments, 

including elimination of best-of-5 set finals; 

reduced draw sizes at five ATP Masters Series events, 

making them 56-player fields to ensure player health 

and enhance TV scheduling; and Sunday starts to 

build Opening Weekends at ATP tournaments. The 

ATP also increases prize money for the first time since 

2000 and creates a new multi-million dollar marketing 

fund. A renewed marketing effort encourages 

fans to rediscover the tandem game and find out 

why ATP “Doubles Rules.” ATP revenues grow by 

15%, a record 4 million fans attend ATP tournaments 

and broadcast hours grow with record numbers 

watching on television. 

2008: The top three players, Rafael Nadal, Roger 

Federer and Novak Djokovic, take a leadership role 

by becoming ATP Player Council members with 

Federer as president. It's the first time in the organization's 

history the top three players have joined the 

council in the same two-year period. All worldwide 

tennis organizations (WTA, ITF, ATP & Grand Slam 

Committee) formed an integrity unit. The ATP's FEEL 

IT player promotion campaign is implemented 

throughout the season. Sponsorship deals with 

South African Airways, Ricoh and Enel were renewed 

while a new agreement was struck with Barclays to 

become the sponsor of the Barclays ATP World Tour 

Finals in London. 

2009: Adam Helfant takes over as ATP Executive 

Chairman in January. The organization was rebranded 

ATP World Tour, the launch of which included a new 

logo. Three new tournament categories were introduced 

during the season with ATP World Tour 

Masters 1000, ATP World Tour 500 and ATP World 

Tour 250 level events. The points awarded to the tournament 

winner corresponded with the category level. 

The year-end championship, the Barclays ATP World 

Tour Finals, were held in London for the first time, as 

over 250,000 fans jammed The 02 arena during the 

eight-day tournament. It was an all-time attendance 

record for an indoor tournament. 

ATP Executive Chairman Adam Helfant presented the 

ATP World Tour Champion’s trophy to Roger Federer 

during the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals in London.

ATP EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN 

ADAM HELFANT 

Adam Helfant begins his second year as ATP 

Executive Chairman and President. Helfant took 

over his role in January 2009. 

Helfant spent his first season traveling to more 

than 20 tournaments around the world, meeting 

with players, tournament officials and other industry 

leaders. 

Helfant, an MIT and Harvard law graduate, is one 

of the world's leading sports executives. Most 

recently he spent 12 years with Nike, rising to the 

position of Vice President, Global Sports Marketing, 

a role in which he was responsible for Nike's relationships 

and contracts with athletes, clubs, teams, 

universities and sports governing bodies throughout 

the world. 

Previous to his time at Nike, Helfant served as 

an attorney for the National Hockey League and 

before that spent four years in private law practice 

at the international law firm Cleary, Gottlieb, 

Steen & Hamilton. 

“There is no doubt that men’s professional tennis 

is one of the world’s most popular sports and, as a 

lifelong fan, it is a great honour to have been given 

the opportunity to take the helm at such an exciting 

time for the ATP," said Helfant. "The ATP World Tour 

is truly global, featuring some of the world’s best 

athletes and followed by millions of the most dedicated 

sports fans. 

"We have a wonderful sport and it’s hard to 

imagine a better time for the game. I don’t mean to 

be disrespectful of our past because we have a rich 

history, but right now the quality of play is absolutely 

incredible. We have some terrific ambassadors for 

the sport and we’re fortunate to not just have great 

champions, but great people. It’s a great time to be 

involved in the sport of tennis." 

Helfant, 45, and his wife, Sheila, have two children, 

son, Aidan, and daughter, Isabelle.

2009 IN REVIEW 

Rafael Nadal became the first Spaniard to capture the Australian Open title after defeating 

Swiss Roger Federer 7-5, 3-6, 7-6(3), 3-6, 6-2 in the four-hour and 22-minute final. It was the 

third straight time that Nadal defeated Federer in a Grand Slam final, and the fifth time in 

seven clashes. Nadal was the first left-hander to triumph at Melbourne Park since Petr Korda 

in 1998. At 22 years and seven months, Nadal was the second youngest man in the Open Era 

to have won six Grand Slam titles – Bjorn Borg at 22 years and one month was the youngest. 

Nadal came into the final having triumphed in the longest ever Australian Open men’s singles 

match (five hours, 14 minutes) to defeat Fernando Verdasco in the semi-finals. Goran 

Ivanisevic was the last player to win back-to-back five-set matches to win a Grand Slam at 

Wimbledon in 2001 (d. Henman SF, d. Rafter F). Second seeds Mike and Bob Bryan clinched 

their third doubles crown and seventh Grand Slam title overall after they beat third seeds 

Mahesh Bhupathi and Mark Knowles 2-6, 7-5, 6-0.

2009 Singles Final: (2) Roger Federer (SUI) d (23) Robin Soderling (SWE) 6-1, 7-6(1), 6-4 

2009 Doubles Final: (3) Dlouhy-Paes d Moodie-Norman 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 


Roger Federer became the sixth man in history to win all four Grand Slam singles titles when he 

defeated Swede Robin Soderling 6-1, 7-6(1), 6-4 in the Roland Garros final. Victory for Federer, 

playing in his 40th Grand Slam, also saw him tie Pete Sampras’ all-time record of 14 major singles 

titles. The Swiss was presented with the Coupe des Mousquetaires by Andre Agassi, who 

was the last man to complete the career Grand Slam. Federer was the fourth player to complete 

the career Grand Slam at Roland Garros, with Fred Perry (1935), Don Budge (1938) and Agassi 

(1999) also having done so. Soderling, who beat four-time defending champion Rafael Nadal in 

the fourth round, had never previously advanced past the third round in 21 majors before. 

Soderling became the first Swedish player to reach a Grand Slam final since Thomas Johansson 

won the 2002 Australian Open (d. Safin). Third seeds Lukas Dlouhy and Leander Paes captured 

their first Grand Slam title together after rallying past Wesley Moodie and Dick Norman 3-6, 6-3, 

6-2. It was the fifth crown in 10 finals for Paes and first for Dlouhy.

2009 Doubles Final: (2) Nestor-Zimonjic d (1) Bryan-Bryan 7-6(7), 6-7(3), 7-6(3), 6-3 


Roger Federer, contesting a record seventh successive Wimbledon men’s singles final, served a 

personal-best 50 aces to prevail against long-time American rival Andy Roddick 5-7, 7-6(6), 7- 

6(5), 3-6, 16-14 in four hours and 16 minutes. Under the gaze of Royal Box guests Rod Laver, 

Bjorn Borg and Pete Sampras the Swiss lifted a record-breaking 15th major singles title. 

Roddick’s serve was impenetrable until the final game of the match, when Federer clinched victory 

on his first match point. Until then, Roddick had held 37 straight service games. Federer was 

only the third player to win six or more Wimbledon titles, behind William Renshaw and Sampras – 

who both won seven titles. He also broke another Open Era record of Sampras’ by winning his 

11th grass-court title. Roddick was the first non-European man to reach a Grand Slam final since 

Chilean Fernando Gonzalez at the 2007 Australian Open. Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic 

became the first team since Jonas Bjorkman and Todd Woodbridge in 2004 to successfully defend 

their doubles title with a 7-6(7), 6-7(3), 7-6(3), 6-3 win over top seeds Bob and Mike Bryan.

Argentine Juan Martin del Potro ended World No. 1 Roger Federer’s reign at the US Open, stunning 

the five-time defending champion 3-6, 7-6(5), 4-6, 7-6(4), 6-2 in a Monday final to capture 

his first Grand Slam title. It was the Federer’s first loss at the US Open since 2003, when he fell to 

David Nalbandian in the fourth round, and his first loss in 125 Grand Slam matches against a 

player ranked outside the Top 5. The 20-year-old del Potro became the fifth youngest man to 

win the US Open title in the Open Era, the first player to win his maiden Grand Slam title at the 

US Open since Andy Roddick in 2003, and became the tallest Grand Slam winner at 6’6”. He also 

joined countryman Guillermo Vilas (1977) as the only South American champions at the US 

Open. Lukas Dlouhy and Leander Paes clinched the doubles title with a 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 win over 

Mahesh Bhupathi and Mark Knowles.

Nikolay Davydenko capped a dream week by defeating Juan Martin del Potro of Argentina 6-3, 6- 

4 to clinch the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals title. Davydenko was the first Russian to win the 

title in tournament history (since 1970). He earned $1,510,000 for the biggest title of his career 

and defeated the winners of all four Grand Slam titles in 2009, Rafael Nadal (Australian Open), 

Roger Federer (Roland Garros, Wimbledon ) and del Potro (US Open). It was his fifth title of the 

year. Earlier in the week, Federer became just the second player in the history of the South 

African Airways ATP Rankings to regain the year-end No. 1 ranking and was crowned ATP World 

Tour Champion for the fifth time after beating Andy Murray in a Group A round-robin match. Bob 

and Mike Bryan, who trailed by 830 points in the ATP Doubles Team Rankings prior to the tournament, 

were crowned ATP World Tour Doubles Champions for the fifth time in seven years after 

beating Max Mirnyi and Andy Ram 7-6(5), 6-3 in the final.

2009 Doubles Final: Fish-Roddick d Mirnyi-A Ram 3-6, 6-1, 14-12 (Match TB) 


Top seed Rafael Nadal recaptured the BNP Paribas Open title, his 13th ATP World Tour Masters 

1000 shield, after posting an overwhelming 6-1, 6-2 victory over fourth-seeded Briton Andy 

Murray on a windy day. The 22-year-old Spaniard won the final five games of each set as he 

converted four of his five break point opportunities during the one-hour, 20-minute 

encounter. Nadal, who also won the 2007 title, escaped a fourth-round upset this past week 

when he saved five match points against David Nalbandian. The final marked Murray’s most 

lopsided loss since he fell to Marcos Baghdatis by the same scoreline in the first round at 

Cincinnati in August 2007. The 21-year-old Scot joined Greg Rusedski (1998) and Tim Henman 

(2002, 2004) as British finalists. A total of 15,943 people attended the final, taking the attendance 

level for the combined event to a tournament-record 332,498. Americans Mardy Fish 

and Andy Roddick clinched the doubles title after saving three match points at 8-9, 9-10 and 

11-12 in the Match Tie-break for a 3-6, 6-1, 14-12 win over Max Mirnyi and Andy Ram.

Fourth seed Andy Murray became the first British champion at the Sony Ericsson Open with 

a 6-2, 7-5 victory over third seed and 2007 titlist Novak Djokovic in one hour and 42 minutes. 

The 21-year-old Murray was the first player in 2009 to win three ATP World Tour titles. Murray 

took a 4-0 lead before Djokovic registered on the scoreboard. Djokovic saved one set point in 

the seventh game to hold for 2-5, before Murray – who dropped just three points on serve in 

the opening set – confidently served out the set. In the second set, the tables were turned as 

Djokovic opened up a 4-1 lead and he squandered two set points at 5-3. Murray battled back 

to a 6-5 lead and a 42nd unforced error from Djokovic saw the Scot earn two match points at 

40-15. He secured victory when Djokovic hit a forehand volley long. In the first all-unseeded 

Miami doubles final since 1991, Max Mirnyi and Andy Ram won their second team title with a 

hard-fought 6-7(4), 6-2, 10-7 victory over Australians Ashley Fisher and Stephen Huss.

Rafael Nadal captured his fifth straight Monte-Carlo Rolex Masters title with a 6-3, 2-6, 6-1 victory 

over third seed Novak Djokovic of Serbia in two hours and 44 minutes. It was the pair’s 16 career 

meeting. Nadal conceded his first set in Monte-Carlo since his 2006 final win against Federer. The 

top-seeded Spaniard extended his winning streak to 27 matches at the clay-court tournament and 

is the first player to win an ATP World Tour Masters 1000 tournament five consecutive years. Nadal 

is the first ATP World Tour No. 1 to win the Monte-Carlo title since Ivan Lendl in 1988 (d. Jaite). He is 

now just one Monte-Carlo title away from equalling England’s Reggie Doherty’s six titles (1897-99, 

1902-04) at the Monte-Carlo Country Club, won at the dawn of the 103-year-old championship. In 

the doubles final, second seeds Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic beat top seeds Bob and Mike 

Bryan 6-4, 6-1 in just 48 minutes. His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco attended the tournament’s 

103rd edition, which had a record attendance of 123,000 spectators during the week.

2009 Doubles Final: (2) Nestor-Zimonjic d (1) Bryan-Bryan 7-6(5), 6-3 


Rafael Nadal won a record fourth Internazionali BNL d’Italia title with a hard-fought 7-6(2), 

6-2 victory over defending champion Novak Djokovic in two hours and three minutes. 

Nadal improved to a 22-1 event match record by clinching a record fourth Rome title, bettering 

the record of Jaroslav Drobny (1950-52), Martin Mulligan (1963, ’65, ’67) and Thomas 

Muster (1990, ’95-96) who have won three titles. In their second ATP World Tour final meeting 

in three weeks, two rare forehand errors from Nadal when he served for the first set at 5- 

4 brought Djokovic back to life. Both players exchanged service breaks, but Nadal was able 

to raise his game in the tie-break. In the second set, Nadal broke serve in the sixth game as 

Djokovic double faulted under the pressure and he went on to close out his 13th victory 

over Djokovic, with a second break of serve, as he flicked a forehand pass up the line. Nenad 

Zimonjic and Daniel Nestor continued their European clay-court domination by defeating 

defending champions Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan 7-6(5), 6-3 in the doubles final.

2009 Doubles Final: (2) Nestor-Zimonjic d Aspelin-Moodie 6-4, 6-4 


Roger Federer ended his title drought in style, hitting his sixth ace of the match, for a 6-4, 6-4 victory 

over rival Rafael Nadal in 86 minutes. It was Federer’s first success against a Top 4 player since 

defeating No. 3-ranked Novak Djokovic in the 2008 US Open semi-finals. The 27-year-old Federer 

clinched his first ATP World Tour title since winning his hometown title in Basel (d. Nalbandian) in 

October 2008. The Swiss, who captured the 2006 Madrid title, was contesting his 80th tour-level 

final. Nadal saw his clay-court winning streak end at 33 singles match wins, dating back to his second-round 

loss to Juan Carlos Ferrero at ATP World Tour Masters 1000 Rome on 7 May, 2008. 

Nadal, who saved three match points against Novak Djokovic in the semi-finals, was bidding to 

become the first man to win all three clay-court ATP World Tour Masters 1000 titles in the same 

season. In the doubles final, Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic clinched their fifth ATP World Tour 

title of the season with a 6-4, 6-4 victory over Simon Aspelin and Wesley Moodie.

Third seed Andy Murray rallied past sixth seed Juan Martin del Potro, who saw his 10-match 

winning streak come to an end, with a 6-7(4), 7-6(3), 6-1 win to claim his fourth ATP World Tour 

Masters 1000 title. Murray was the first British player to capture the Rogers Cup title in tournament 

history. He also became the first player to post 50 match wins in 2009 (50-7). The first 

two sets took two hours and 17 minutes before Murray ran away with the third set in 27 minutes 

as he limited del Potro to just nine points total. As a result, Murray became the first player 

other than Roger Federer or Rafael Nadal, to rank World No. 2 since Lleyton Hewitt on July 18 

2005. For the first time in ATP history, the top eight-ranked players in the South African 

Airways ATP Rankings were featured in the quarter-finals. The Rogers Cup made history as the 

first one-week tournament to sell more than 200,000 tickets. In the doubles final, third seeds 

Mahesh Bhupathi and Mark Knowles beat seventh seeds Max Mirnyi and Andy Ram 6-4, 6-3.

Top seed Roger Federer captured his third trophy at Western & Southern Financial Group 

Masters, after beating fourth seed Novak Djokovic 6-2, 7-5 in one hour and 31 minutes. It was 

Federer’s first win against the Serbian since the 2008 US Open. Federer is the fourth player to 

win at least three titles at the tournament in the Open Era (since 1968). Djokovic saved six of 

seven break points in the 33-minute first set. Federer won 16 of 19 service points, while 

Djokovic clinched his third service game to avoid a 6-0 set. Djokovic bounced back by storming 

into a 3-0 second-set lead, but Federer regained his composure and almost won four games in 

a row. At 3-3 he could not convert two break point opportunities and was required to save one 

set point at 4-5, 30-40. Federer converted his fourth of 15 break point opportunities in the 11th 

game, before serving out a love service game. In the doubles final, second seeds Daniel Nestor 

and Nenad Zimonjic saved eight match points in the Match Tie-break to beat defending champions 

Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan 3-6, 7-6(2), 15-13 in 77 minutes.

Sixth seed Nikolay Davydenko captured his third ATP World Tour Masters 1000 title after dismissing 

top seed Rafael Nadal 7-6(3), 6-3 to capture the Shanghai ATP Masters 1000 Presented 

by Rolex trophy. The Russian had fought past Novak Djokovic in a third-set tie-break in the 

semi-finals, but showed no signs of fatigue in his seventh meeting with Nadal. Davydenko 

could not convert a double service break when Nadal served at 15/40, 2-4 and was left to rue 

his missed opportunities. The Muscovite was forced to save a set point in the 10th game and 

went on to seize control of the tie-break, when he opened up a 5-2 lead. Nadal looked most 

likely to make an early breakthrough in the second set, but aggressive play from Davydenko 

paid dividends as he broke his increasingly frustrated opponent to lead 4-2. The Russian maintained 

his composure and went on to seal victory in two hours and three minutes. In the doubles 

final, French duo Julien Benneteau and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga captured their first ATP World 

Tour title together with a 6-2, 6-4 victory over Poles Mariusz Fyrstenberg and Marcin Matkowski.

Third seed Novak Djokovic held his nerve in a gripping finale at the BNP Paribas Masters to 

edge home favourite Gael Monfils 6-2, 5-7, 7-6(3) in two hours and 43 minutes to claim his 

first ATP World Tour Masters 1000 title of the season. It was Djokovic’s first win from five ATP 

World Tour Masters 1000 finals this year. Djokovic, playing in the 11th ATP World Tour Masters 

1000 final of his career, broke twice in the fourth and eighth games for a one-set lead. The 

Serbian raced to a 3-0 lead in the second set, but he squandered his advantage as errors 

crept into his game. Monfils hit back to level at 3-3 before breaking serve once more in the 

11th game and going on to take the set. Djokovic twice led by a service break in the deciding 

set, but both times Monfils fought his way back into contention. In the tie-break, Monfils 

conceded the match at 3-6 with his sixth double fault. In the doubles final, Daniel Nestor and 

Nenad Zimonjic captured their ninth title of the year after defeating Marcel Granollers and 

Tommy Robredo 6-3, 6-4.

WIMBLEDON CHAMPIONSHIPS HISTORY 

From 1877 to 1921 the men’s singles was decided on a challenge round system, the previous year’s winner standing out until a winner of the so-called All Comers event 

qualified to challenge. The same system applied in the men’s doubles from 1886 to 1921. It never applied in the women’s or mixed doubles. In those years, the presence 

of the previous year’s winner in the last match means that the title was decided in a challenge round. The Championships were staged at the All England Club, Worple 

Road, Wimbledon, from 1877 until 1921 when the club moved to Church Road, Wimbledon.

US OPEN CHAMPIONSHIPS HISTORY 

ATP FACTS AND FIGURES 

244 

In 1924, after the completion of the West Side Tennis Club Stadium, the championship returned to Forest Hills, and was held there through 1977, when it moved to the 

USTA’s new tennis complex at Flushing Meadows, N.Y. National Championships of the United States Tennis Association were provided for when that body was organized, 

May 21, 1881. The first championship of the United States under uniform conditions, open to all comers and sanctioned by the National Association, was held at The 

Casino, Newport, R.I., in August 1881, and for 34 years thereafter without interruption. 

Before 1890, the national doubles championship was played in conjunction with the singles tournament. From 1890 to 1906 tournaments were held in the East and 

West, and the sectional winners at these meets then played off for the privilege of meeting the standing-out champions in the challenge round. The 1918 championship 

was a playing-through tournament, the sectional and preliminary doubles and the challenge round having been done away with. In 1919 the plan of the qualifying sectional 

winners was restored, although an exception was made in the case of the Australian teams on a visit to the United States at that time, and the last challege round 

in national doubles was played that year. Since 1920 there have been few changes.
