Now that they've all played 2 games, I was surprised not to see Andy on the leader board for points won receiving (either 1st or 2nd serve). Then I had a look at match stats, and he's won 44 pts when receiving 1st serve , and 46 pts receiving 2nd serve, which should put him right up near the top of the list.
They've definately got his 2 games on the DB, because he's in one of the lists with 2 games played.
I'm baffled.
OOOps should be in the other section, maybe a Mod can move it
wouldnt player with longer matches be higher up tho?
The fact andy wrapped his opening match up with straight breaks (almost) might mean that he won less points than had there been tie break sets etc and more games would have been played.
Wouldnt a % be a better indicator? in the 1st match he would have won about 9 return games, but its not winning, its points, which means big duece games pay off better.

There's something completely shot with the points on return stats. Top of the list for points won receiving 2nd serve , leading by a mile , is Gabashvili, with 59, who only played one game.
I've just worked it out. Although the list says total points won, it is in fact % points won.
