Nadal dropped out now. . .

He is replaced by LL Christophe Rochus, but his place in the draw (along with the first round bye) is taken by Soderling.

If Chela's not playing tomorrow, does that mean Andy gets to play Wed?  Have I got that right?

What i dont understand about safin, is that how he can have a protected ranking when it should be 'protected for six months' or is it longer? also can he protect his ranking even though he has been playing since march?

apperantly it is becuase if he reaches the final he will have to ttravel 5 or 6 time zones for a tourament to start the next day. saying he was too tired to play.

i cant believe the tourney accepted his withdrawal! Firstly, won a tourney literally next door from france! Secondly, he beat Gonzalez comfortably in straight sets. Thirdly, he would have has wednesday start. Fourthly, its the last tourney of the year, whether he won a round or not, he still should have competed!

I must admit as a Federer fan, I am glad he has withdrawn. He is not used to playing tournaments back-to-back, and don't forget he won both the last two, so has played a lot of tennis. Playing Paris would mean risking he would get an injury or be too fatigued for the Masters Cup.

It is a shame for the tournament, for a Masters to end up looking like a "Mickey Mouse" event, but this is surely the fault of the ATP for bad planning - although to be fair, Fed could have had a week's rest between Madrid and Paris had he not played Basel. It is surely understandable though that he wanted to win his home town tournament for the first time. So really it was just an unfortunate sequence of events.

I have updated the entry list and draw.

I hope murray does well here. i think the dark horse is safin and i tip gasquet as the potential winner.
