ARTICLE Ferrero Fights On

Spain's Juan Carlos Ferrero has improved his year-end ranking for five straight seasons since his impressive finish in the Top 50 in 1999 in his debut season. Having finished in the Top 5 for the third straight year, extending the streak is getting tougher and tougher. Although he was unable to take the chance at Tennis Masters Cup to become the first Spaniard to end the year No. 1 (he finished No. 3 behind fellow young stars Andy Roddick and Roger Federer), Ferrero is likely to battle for No. 1 honors in the ATP Champions Race 2004. He will also play a key role in Spain's quest to upset Australia in the Davis Cup final in Melbourne from Nov. 28-30.

Interesting to note that JC was #5 in 2001, #4 in 2002 and #3 in 2003. So at this rate he should reach #1 in 2005!! ^^
