Yes, seems a strange one to me too. Would be interested to see who else you think would leave Federer struggling to make the top 10, Martens. Even if (and it's a big "if") you think Nadal, Djokovic and Murray are all going to be (or already are) better than Federer, that's not even going to push him out of the top 5, never mind leave him struggling to make the top 10. What other players are around that could force Federer down the rankings? Davydenko, Roddick, Blake, Gonzalez, Robredo, Haas, Youzhny are the other current top 10 players, none of them are even close to Federer. The likes of Gasquet, Baghdatis, may make the top 10, but I can't see them challenging Federer. All of them at a push may be capable of beating Federer on a good day, but they're not, IMO, going to be forcing him down the rankings any time soon.
