In Cincinnati, Grigor Dimitrov (26) beat Nick Kyrgios (22). That was also the last final between two players making their ATP Masters 1000 championship match debut. The last time this happened at the Rolex Paris Masters was in 2012 when David Ferrer beat qualifier Jerzy Janowicz for his first ATP Masters 1000 title. If Krajinovic wins, Pablo Carreno Busta will earn the final spot for the Nitto ATP Finals in London. The last time a player qualified for the year-end Finals by needing to win the Paris title was Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in 2008 (d. Nalbandian). • This will be the first meeting on the ATP World Tour between the two although Sock won 36 64 64 in the semi-finals at the 2014 Savannah, Georgia Challenger (l. to Kyrgios in final). • Sock, who came into Paris No. 24 in the Emirates ATP Race to London, is trying to become the first American to win the Rolex Paris Masters since Andre Agassi in 1999 (d. Safin). Sock is on the verge of several career firsts. If he defeats Krajinovic, he will: + Capture his first ATP Masters 1000 title (the last American to win an ATP Masters 1000 title was fellow Nebraska native Andy Roddick in 2010 Miami). Europeans have won 69 in a row since then + Earn the final spot for the season-ending Nitto ATP Finals in London (the first American to qualify in singles since Mardy Fish in 2011) + Win a personal-best three ATP World Tour singles titles in a season (his first ATP singles title in Europe and indoor) + Break Top 10 in the Emirates ATP Rankings at No. 9 (improving his year-end ranking for 7th straight year) + Finish as No. 1 American for the first time in his career • Krajinovic is appearing in his first ATP World Tour final and if he defeats Sock, he will: + Become the eighth first-time ATP World Tour champion this season + Become the first qualifier to win an ATP Masters 1000 title since Albert Portas at 2001 Hamburg (and first player to win his maiden ATP title in an ATP Masters 1000 event since Portas) + Become the first qualifier to win the Rolex Paris Masters in tournament history (since 1986) + Post wins over the Top 3 Americans in Paris: Querrey (2R), Isner (SF) and Sock (F) + Will jump from No. 77 to career-high No. 25 in the Emirates ATP Rankings (No. 33 with final) and finish 2017 as No. 2 Serbian behind Djokovic (regardless of final outcome) + Will become the lowest-ranked ATP Masters 1000 champion since 1996 Hamburg with No. 143 Roberto Carretero (d. Correjta). Last ATP Masters 1000 champion outside Top 50: No. 57 Chris Woodruff at 1997 Montreal (d.

  • ATP2020 Criteria the ATP Award Flights Travel to the ATP Grand Slam, Masters 1000 and ATP Final Matches. to Complete the ATP2020
    ATP2020 Criteria The ATP Award flights travel to the ATP Grand Slam, Masters 1000 and ATP Final matches. To complete the ATP2020 Award, fly to the listed airports from a vUAL hub (not necessarily your assigned hub), arriving between the Arrivals Start Date and the Arrivals End Date. So, for example, arrive in Melbourne YMML between Jan. 19 and Jan. 26. So, even if you're assigned to the Newark hub, you can fly RJAA-YMML to qualify for the award flight (during the specified date window, of course). For Flight#, use your vUAL ID number. For example if you are 277 in the Denver hub, use UAL277 as your Flight# for all ATP flights. You may use Star Alliance liveries for flights originating outside of the United States, e.g., CCA277 coming out of Shanghai. For PIREP Link, go to Pilot Center after your PIREP is approved, right click on the appropriate Flt Number, choose Copy, then paste into the PIREP link cell on this tracking sheet. You do not need to fly to the next tournament airport from the previous tournament airport; other non- ATP flights may be completed between tournaments. You can fly into the tournament airport from any other airport; you can fly to any other airport when you leave the tournament airport. To give newer pilots some "big iron" time, flights for this award are CAT-free; fly any airframe that is appropriate for the journey, regardless of your vUAL rank. Send the completed tracking sheet to your hub manager and assistant hub manager after you finish all the required flights.

Sans doute fille rejetée de Pépin le Bref, les Solognots l’ont adoptée alors qu’elle n’était, selon la légende, plus qu’une pauvre pastourelle au service d’une fermière acariâtre.

AVANT-PROPOS La péninsule ibérique et les archipels relevant de la souveraineté espagnole, au long et au large de son territoire, mais surtout du littoral méditerranéen, sont parsemés de constructions plus ou moins isolées, plus ou moins hautes, plus ou moins délabrées. Souvent on ne peut parler que de vestiges ou même d’emplacements, car nombre d’entre elles ont disparu ; leur existence, qui parfois remonte au-delà de deux millénaires, étant attestée par les sources documentaires. Il s’agit de bâtiments qui reçoivent les noms les plus divers et que l’on peut regrouper sous le dénominateur commun de « tours de surveillance », ce qui n’exclut pas pour autant la qualification de « tours de défense », fonctions fréquemment partagées, à parts égales ou en différentes proportions. L’intérêt que représente cette communication se trouve, à mon avis, dans deux considérations d’ordre, respectivement, quantitatif et qualitatif. Le dernier inventaire dressé par la Asociación Española de Amigos de los Castillos (Association espagnole des amis des châteaux) fournit le chiffre de 10 268 structures de défense et contrôle du territoire ou, plus couramment, châteaux en Espagne, dont 3 140 correspondent à des « tours ».

  • Tennis - Overview Tennis Is Believed to Have Originated During 12Th Or 13Th Century in France
    COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 Tennis - Overview Tennis is believed to have originated during 12th or 13th century in France. However, it was played by Major Walter C. Wingfield, in an hourglass shaped court in 1873 in Great Britain. It seems to have evolved from similar ancient sports like court tennis, squash racquets and badminton. In 1877, the All England Croquet Club held a Tennis championship in a rectangular court with rules similar to that of modern Tennis. It quickly spread to America, Britain, and later to other parts of the world. Davis Cup, an international tennis tournament, was held in 1900 to promote the game all over the world. On March 1st, 1913, International Tennis Federation (ITF), the international governing body of Tennis was established. It formulates rules to be followed by all the players participating in competitions throughout the world. It also sets guidelines, defines the kind of equipment used in the sport, and defines court dimensions. Tennis is a sport played among two players or two pairs of players competing with each other in a rectangular tennis court with fixed boundaries. The two sides of the court are separated with a net. The sport involves shooting a tennis ball towards the other side of the court with a tennis racket. The ball has to fall within the court THANKS FOR READING – VISIT OUR WEBSITE www.educatererindia.com COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 boundaries.

    News Release 11 November 2018 DJOKOVIC PRESENTED YEAR-END ATP WORLD TOUR NO. 1 TROPHY AT 2018 NITTO ATP FINALS LONDON — Novak Djokovic was today presented with the 2018 year-end ATP World Tour No. 1 trophy during an on-court presentation at the Nitto ATP Finals, the season finale at The O2 in London. The Serbian is one of only four players in ATP Rankings history (since 1973) to have clinched the year-end top spot on five (or more) occasions, joining Pete Sampras (six), Jimmy Connors and Roger Federer (both five times). Djokovic, who replaced Spain’s Rafael Nadal at No. 1 on 5 November, has completed a remarkable comeback to top form in 2018, capturing four titles—including two Grand Slams and two ATP World Tour Masters 1000s – from six tour-level finals. Aged 31 and six months, Djokovic is the oldest player to finish year-end No. 1 in ATP Rankings history. Having previously finished at the top in 2011-12, 2014-15, he is the second player — after Nadal (2008, 2010, 2013 and 2017) — with three stints as year-end No. 1. He is also the first player to be ranked outside the Top 20 and finish the same season at No. 1 in the history of the ATP Rankings. Russia’s Marat Safin was as low at No. 38 on 28 February 2000 before becoming No. 1 on 20 November that year, but he did not finish the season at No. 1. When Djokovic fell to No. 22 on 21 May 2018, it was his lowest ranking since he was No.
