It was inevitable once Rafa was ousted in the quarter-finals to Del Potro that Andy Murray would become the new world No.2.  Murray who defeated Del Potro to win Montreal 6-7, 7-6, 6-1 will now become the new world No.2 when the ATP Tour Rankings are released on Monday.  This then means Rafa will return to the No.3 spot for the first time since July 18th 2005 which was also the last time Rafa and Roger failed to claim the top two spots in Men’s tennis. 

When Rafa returned to tennis this week he knew it would be almost impossible for him to win Montreal but merely wanted to gain some match practice and to test how his knees would cope under match pressure.  Not for one minute was he concerned with losing his No.2 ranking, he was just glad to be back playing, and we all know that Andys stay at No.2 should be savoured because Rafa will soon reclaim what is rightfully his and that said Roger should also be looking behind him because Rafa is coming!!!!!
