Tennis Tournaments and the Build Up to the 2011 US Open ...

Two men, both listed in the newly released ATP Top 10 men?s tennis rankings fought two separate battles on a single weekend in July. Whilst one was victorious in his tennis match, the other lost out.

German Tennis Championship: This weekend saw the finals of the German Tennis Championship in Hamburg, with Gilles Simon beating Nicolas Almagro. While both parties were highly admiring about the other?s skills to tennis news sites, it was Almagro who regained a top 10 spot in the ATP rankings, despite Simon?s win in the tennis tournament. The two hour tennis game was won 6-4 4-6 6-4 after the opponents won a set each, with Simon clinching the final set despite making some vital errors. The points from the final helped to bump up Almagro from no.14 in the ATP standings back into the top 10.

Atlanta Tennis championships: Across the ocean, another member of the ATP?s top rated men?s tennis players, Mardy Fish, won the Atlanta Tennis Championship final against John Isner. 2011 is the second consecutive year in which the two players have faced off against one another and Fish has come out victorious.

Fish is currently the only US tennis player in the ATP top 10 male position. He has retained the no. 9 seed. One of the reasons that Fish has attributed his tennis championship victory is down to improved fitness, which allowed him to come back from a tie-break and win against Isner this weekend.

With tournaments such as Wimbledon and French Open over, all eyes are now on the 2011 US Open for the perennial late summer classic.
