There's a lot of movement within the Top 10 this week. Roger Federer returns to the #2 position (where he should really be!). Spanish players Fernando Verdasco and David Ferrer moves two places to #7 and #8 respectively. Now there are three Spanish players in the Top 10! Tomas Berdych and Andy Roddick move up one notch to #6 and #10 respectively.
Outside the Top 10, the biggest mover is Juan Monaco of Argentina, a semifinalist in Shanghai, moving fifteen places to #26. Guillermo Garcia-Lopez of Spain, a quarterfinalist in Shanghai, moves a further 6 notches to #29 this week. He's now within the seeded player rankings needed for a Grand Slam.
Further down, Tobias Kamke of Germany moves sixteen places to #72.
