Despite losing in the quarterfinals of the Rotterdam 2013 tournament, Roger Federer retained the number two ranking in this week’s rankings. However, his ranking points are now below 10,000 and he does have a lot of points to defend by March which could give an opportunity for Andy Murray to overtake him should the Swiss star perform below par from last year’s. Meanwhile, Rafael Nadal continues to add more points with a title win in Brazil.
