Rafael Nadal has played thirteen tournaments and the Davis Cup World Team playoffs in 2013. He made the finals of 12 tournaments, winning 10 titles, including two Grand Slams. Although the Mallorcan left New York as World No. 2, he is on track to regaining the year-end World No. 1 spot, as he has no points to defend and is scheduled to play in some important tournaments coming up.
Here is the rest of his schedule to close out the year:
China Open — Beijing, China, September 30 ✓
Shanghai Masters — Shanghai, China, October 6 ✓
Swiss Indoors — Basel, Switzerland, October 21 Withdrawn
Paris Masters — Paris, France, October 28
ATP World Tour Finals — London, UK, November 4
In addition, Rafa may also play various exhibition games in South America and at the Necker Cup. Note that the schedule depends on Rafa’s health and availability, and can change anytime. Stay tuned for more updates in case of schedule changes.

Does anyone knows Novaks schedule? I am trying to figure out the points for Rafa staying nr 1!! Vamos
Playing too many tournaments within a short span of time is not only hazardous but very harmful to his troublesome knee! To extend his career, he must reduce his appearance in tournaments to a reasonable number!
I only know that nole hasn’t any points to defend in Paris, unfortunately…;-(

Vamos! The greatest tennis player ever!

he will paly in Abu Dhabi in the end of the year ….

Long live rafa,,,arguably the best player ever!!!

This is too much!I feel he shouldn’t do Shanghai.If he is successful with these,Rafa will have a lot of points to defend next year.
Yes aim for that WTF! Vamos Rafa!
Hectic schedule. But, should work ok! Vamos!
He is going the whole hog, awesome 🙂 I hope he wins the WTF this year, thats the only major trophy missing from his cabinet and that would cap off 2013 perfectly along with the Year End No. 1 ranking 🙂 Vamos !!
