    “2018 – Año del Centenario de la Reforma Universitaria” (S-4977/17) PROYECTO DE DECLARACION El Senado de la Nación DECLARA Su reconocimiento al tenista argentino Diego Schwartzman quien se consagró campeón del Abierto de Río de Janeiro, disputado en Brasil del 17 al 25 de febrero de 2018. Ángel Rozas.- FUNDAMENTOS Señora Presidente: El mundo deportivo ha sido testigo de un nuevo logro de un deportista argentino, en este caso el tenista Diego Schwartzman que cumpliendo una brillante tarea logró adjudicarse el ATP 500 de Río de Janeiro disputado en Brasil. En esta oportunidad, el oriundo de Villa Crespo se impuso en la final del certamen al español, Fernando Verdasco, número 40 del ránking ATP, en sets corridos (6-2, 6-3) y se adjudicó así la corona del torneo carioca por primera vez en su carrera. Diego Schwartzman, popularmente conocido como “Peque” debido a su baja estatura, comenzó a practicar tenis a los 7 años en el Club Náutico Hacoaj. Disputó su primer torneo profesional en el F5 de Argentina, donde perdió en la ronda inicial contra Juan Vázquez Valenzuela. En 2012 y luego de adjudicarse nada menos que 5 títulos futures consecutivos se catapultó al puesto 245° del ránking ATP y comenzó a disputar regularmente torneos correspondientes a dicho circuito. Así llegó, por ejemplo, al Torneo de Buenos Aires, Acapulco, Bastad, Hamburgo y Viña del Mar. Hacia 2014 ganó el Challenger de San Pablo en modalidad dobles junto a Guido Pella derrotando en la final a otros argentinos, Máximo González y Andrés Molteni; y se quedó también con el Challenger de Aix Provence, Francia, tras superar en el último encuentro al alemán Andreas Beck en tres sets.

Email: [email protected] 2 Department of Computing, Imperial College London, South Kensington Campus, SW7 2AZ, United Kingdom. Email: {wjk,ds406}@doc.ic.ac.uk Abstract. We explore the relationship between official rankings of pro- fessional tennis players and rankings computed using a variant of the PageRank algorithm as proposed by Radicchi in 2011. We show Radic- chi’s equations follow a natural interpretation of the PageRank algorithm and present up-to-date comparisons of official rankings with PageRank- based rankings for both the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) and Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) tours. For top-ranked players these two rankings are broadly in line; however, there is wide variation in the tail which leads us to question the degree to which the official ranking mechanism reflects true player ability. For a 390-day sample of recent tennis matches, PageRank-based rankings are found to be better predictors of match outcome than the official rankings. 1 Introduction The rankings of the world’s top tennis players are the subject of much global popular interest.
