i was ranked 75 and i entered a tournament and all of a sudden i dropped down to 87. i beat players ranked at 27 and 19, then i lose and my ranking is 83. i enter the next tournament and my ranking dropped down to 91. can anybody tell me why it's doing that.

quote Krisneo

in my first year i won all four granslams and i got 2 number one in the world

Yeah right...

Not sure about your problem there jrd. Maybe you accidently missed out some tournaments?

Well, got the game a couple days ago, mainly played the Arcade mode so far, but i've just started two Pro Tours, one with Maria Sharapova and the other with Greg Rusedski (solely because he's British mind...). I'll post up Sharapova's appearance later if i remember to, but i won't bother with Rusedksi since it looks nothing like him .

Turned the missions off since they're extremely annoying, and played the first couple of tours with each. Not much else to say so far though obviously .

can u unlock doubles pro tour mode like on sct1? if u won all the grand slams (male+female) on that 1 i think u cud play through it as a doubles as i remember playing it with my bro. i wondered if ne1 has done this. i just won the US open with my female char so i now hav them all and nothing happened but somethin may change at the end of the year?? ne1 done this? surely they wudnt take out one of the best features of the 1st game?

I've won all Grand Slams with both, and nothing was unlocked. I've not seen mention of it being unlockable either anywhere, so I doubt the option's there.

Woah, first post in ages here!

It probably won't be read either, but meh.

Got rid of Sharapova tour, don't like the girls one. I'm just doing one as myself, 2nd season, ranked 50-something. Won Wimbledon in my first year somehow, got that again soon, currently playing Roland Garros though. Won a few Smash Pro championships now as well. I want to be 1st in the world by the end of my 3rd year/start of 4th.

Hey! it isnt that hard to win grand slams and oponents like roddick or ferrero...u only have to organize yourselves. u only have to spend exp points into POWER so your serve will be lethal so it wont be broken ever. now u only have to break a single game to win the match......I recommend playin at initial levels only smashpoint series, u also wont be concerned 'bout stamina 'cos the rivals are so easy..u will earn enought levels only in less than a year if u won all those tournaments. So now u have lots of exp points......Now my power is in SSS and so my flat, serve and volley.......of course i've won everything, all grand slams, etc(thanks to my serve) i'm ranked 1st and I'm now preety bored--->i've just began a new player to have some fun!.......(if u have noticed yet, the easiest oponents are those who like playin at the net, like Henman)

In my second season i won the US, Australian Roland Garros and Wimbeldon. Im in my second season and im 1st. Beat that you NWB'SSSSSSSSSSSS

Settle down, kids.

Won Wimbledon the other day. Beat Haas and Ferrero on the way there. Shame the final was a bit disappointing. Took on that Thai bloke.

Plus, I don;t remember the Wimbledon trophy being.. so yellow.

Hi, I'm in my 5th year now. Decided to play with mission play again. Started the year as no. 13 of the world, Only played 5 tournaments this year so far. Won the Aussie Open, then I made it tot the Q-finals at Roland Garros (I hate clay). I don't think I'll ever win that tourney. I won at Wimbledon but was nearly eliminated in the semi-finals by Hewitt. I didn't get the mission right in the 4th set, but they gave me the chance to win the tie-break. After that I won the 5th set. Final was against M. Kraatz, he was no match.

After this I won the Smash Pro GP tourney in Miami and after that the US Open. I played 4 top 10-players here. Ferrero, Haas, Roddick and Safin. Now I am number 5 in the rankings.

Don't know how long it will take to go number 1. Only play the Smash Pro GP tourneys and the Grand Slams.

After I reach no. 1, I will start over and try to get to no. 1 sooner than now. This is my first Pro Tour.

If you can serve and volley, that's it. It's all you really need to do.

I prefer my character to be more balanced than that, though. Just picked up my second Grand Slam tournament after winning Wimbledon a couple of season's back. For some reason I went on a slump and flew out of the top 50. I'm now 23rd after winning the Aussie Open in season 5. Won 2 tournaments on the bounce towards the end of last season so I'm on a bit of a roll.

Quite chuffed with the way my player has developed. I started to really pick up steam when I suddenly went from being an all rounder to being a base liner. Quite liked being a baseliner because I could take big scalps like Roddick and Hewitt.

Grand Slams are all in the luck of the draw for me, mind. My two Grand Slams came with some easy, fictional opponents. I destroyed some Spaniard in the final after take Roddick's and Gasquet's scalps. Safin's a tough nut and James Blake's still a brick wall. Also, despite winning 2 of my last 3 tournaments on hard courts, my stats show I prefer grass. Slightly annoyed at that. I can't play to save my life on clay.

Dunno whether to switch raquets when I get the money, too. Last time I done that triggered the massive drop.
