Tomas Martin Etcheverry's interesting way to list his ranking rise in relation to Paris opponent Novak Djokovic
ATPFriday, 03 November 2023 at 09:30
Argentina’s Tomas Martin Etcheverry played his idol Serbia’s
Novak Djokovic in the round of 32 of the Paris Masters on Wednesday.
The match ended with the current world number one on the
winning side in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-2.
Despite the result, Martin Etcheverry’s journey towards facing
his idol remains a special one.
The 24-year-old showcased his journey by putting up the
points difference throughout different phases of his career.
At one stage in 2016, Martin Etcheverry just had one rating
point whereas Djokovic had 12,900 rating points.
Therefore, the La Plata-born will be extremely happy with his
overall progress over the last seven years as he is now the world number 31.
Martin Etcheverry would be relatively satisfied with his
performance in major tournaments in 2023.
For the second-year running, he played in the main round of all
the four Grand Slams and for the first time, he managed to book a place in the third
round or beyond in any of the big events.
His most notable achievement was playing in the quarterfinal
of the French Open where he lost to the current world number nine Germany’s Alexander Zverev with a score of
6-4, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4.

- FYI: The term 'snub' is a much overused verb by writers of sensationalist rags. [SNUB: rebuff, ignore, or spurn disdainfully]. That is not the definition of what is going on with frequent withdrawals from tournaments.
mandoist16-09-2024 - No offence, Mr. Lloyd, but where have you been the past two years?? How long have you been a tennis fan? This 'article' may be informative for newbies or fair-weather tennis observers but the majority of fans know the root of the multiple issues within WTA. The #1 issue being the subject of health & well-being which has been (or has attempted to be) addressed with the WTA Elitist council members last season. WTA was extremely dismissive of players' concerns and opposed to such a meeting. Eventually giving-in due to publicity and allowed selective players only -- no rep's, no medical personnel, and no team members. The meeting was a farce as WTA soon after that released an even more hectic schedule... with mandatory tourneys! Guess they weren't taking notes?? BTW: There is a lot missing from this piece concerning "withdrawals". No writer has yet taken the jump to get behind the scenes and dig at the problems -- obvious organizational problems. IMO, the top two issues are WTA's lack of proper attention to health & well-being of its Money-Makers; and Financial Greed. Tip to Mr. Lloyd: there is no "snubbing" when these players withdraw. These women have to take such measures as withdrawing from a tourney, and occasional time-off from the circuit, to protect themselves -- because WTA refuses to take any measures at all (although not allowing matches until sunrise is a start). Surely you can do better than point fingers at players. The finger-pointing should be directed entirely at WTA (and ATP). Be a true journalist, Mr. Lloyd, and research them!!mandoist16-09-2024
- Uh-oh.... Now Raducanu is being forced to compete! Let's see who withdraws next... I wonder??mandoist15-09-2024
