THE BIG FOUR – PART 4 – THE IMPORTANCE OF THE SUMMER HARDCOURT SEASON ALSO KNOWN AS THE US OPEN SERIES UPDATE ON FEDERER , RAFA , MURRAY AND DJOKOVIC BY DR. DON BROSSEAU

I started out this series of articles to emphasize the importance of the six week season from the week of the Washington D.C. tournament before Toronto through to the end of the US Open. I ended up talking more about the Big Four and how they have attained and maintained their dominance over the field since September 2008, almost 6 years ago.

If you take a look at Part 2 of this series on the Big Four, you will see that since they first took up the first four slots on September 8, 2008 only in 2009 when Del Potro won the US Open and 2012 when Rafa was out for the last half of the year and David Ferrer had a great year has anyone else been able to pierce the 6000 point barrier.

A HEARTFELT APOLOGY TO ANNELISE ANDERSON AND THE YAKIMA TENNIS CLUB

I owe a big apology to the Yakima Tennis Club and their tournament director, AnnElise Anderson. I wrote "the only reason this event is here in Carson is it was going to be cancelled at its site up in the Pacific Northwest; the tournament basically folded". That was very poor reporting on my part. Yakima gave up the tournament because of a fire that destroyed the clubhouse.
