The Age Barrier

I was going to write a much more thought provoking thread, but I realised I hadn't the time to compile such a study so I thought I would throw a question out there not to test people's exact knowledge, but more of what they feel around the age barrier.

So the question

How many players ranked in the top 100 currently are 30 and above?

I will go with 21 players in the top 100 sounds about right. considering there are 2 in the top 10, Ill just use that sample and multiply it by 10.

I'll throw a guess of around 28 in there.

30 seems to be the new 21 these days!

Currently there are 18 players 30+ in the top 100.

Sorry LK, but if you can't tell me how many 30+ were there in average in the last 40 years, this information is of little or no value

JK,

Value is that of perception. Also I am not going to take days in finding out the law of averages, unless of course you are nominating yourself for the task

I regretfully decline your offer.

... using laverfan's figures from another thread...

stunning Reckoner

No worries lk!

Impressive timing......

Fantastic stuff Reckoner

Too kind, laverfan did all the hard work!

well done to LF!

I am still wondering what this graph tells us though
