So Why Is The WTF Played Indoors?
First topic message reminder :
Throughout the year players earn ranking points by playing on a variety of surfaces but nearly always outside. The eight players with the most ranking points get to compete in the showcase WTF were the best compete with the best. However the WTF are played indoors something that many of the top eight players will have very little experience off. In fact when it comes to the best eight players indoors there is not surprisingly a very different top eight. This is the top eight players indoors over the past year.
1) Djokovic
2) Delbonis
3) Nishikori
4) Cilic
5) Belluci
6) Goffin
7) Neilson
8) Federer

Nadal is outside the top 8 at 9 and Wawrinka is languishing at 45 to name a couple of absences. The results are dependent on just a handful of results because indoor tennis is a relative rarity on the tour. Because tennis is seldom played indoors the players that top the ATP rankings do so because they are the best players outdoors. So why is the WTF played indoors?
