College ATP Rankings 8/22

TCU’s Cameron Norrie is still the highest current player although he fell seven spots last week from 298 to 305. Norrie only has 30 points to defend the rest of the year with 27 of those coming the first week of October since he’s the defending champ at the Mansfield (TX) Futures. The Fort Worth Star-Telegram had an article last week with quotes from Norrie and TCU head coach David Roditi about Norrie’s future (Norrie is in school this fall). The same article also mention that Alex Rybakov will be taking the fall off from school to focus on playing pro events. Rybakov has to defend 32 of his 33 ATP points between now and the rest of the year so if he is unable to do so his ranking will take a nose dive.

Virginia freshman Carl Soderlund is second at 430 and with only 24 points to defend between now and the end of the year he’ll still be in the top 500 even if he doesn’t defend a single one.

There are 124 players currently inside the top 1000 that played college tennis including 19 that are still enrolled in school.

I listed everyone that I recognized with at least 2 ATP points but if I skipped over someone let me know. To view the table below in a separate window click here – there are two tabs below – one for current players and the other for both current and former combined together.

I did a cut and paste from the ATP’s site and them made some modifications but haven’t figured out how to make the move category show the up or down arrows (+/-) or for that matter the country code instead of the flag. Send me an email (bobbyk@collegetennistoday.com) if you have any suggestions that aren’t too overly technical.
