ATP Tennis Association is Corrupt and Hopeless!

I have said it before and say it again. In my opinion, the ATP is a corrupt organization. They don’t care about tennis. ATP cares about “showbiz.” Adding coaching to the game, adding the unreliable replay system to the game, and pushing Mr. Over Achiever Nadal to No. 2 in the world by giving him super easy draws. The Shanghai tournament just proves how corrupt ATP is. One group, with the World No. 1 in it, lands the best hardcourt players in the world, while the other group pits Nadal against people like Davydenko and Robredo. These guys are good players but they are not Roddick nor Ljubicic. Nadal seems to get the easier draw all the time whereas the world No. 1 gets the toughest draws possible. Remember Wimbledon anyone? How about the U.S. Open? How about Toronto Masters? Nadal keeps getting easier draws because ATP fixes draw the way it wants. I obviously have no evidence for this, but looking at how the tournaments have gone recently, I need no evidence. ATP has said it numerous times that they like the “showbiz” aspect of the game. They add a replay system, which I believe cannot possibly be accurate enough to be used in big tournaments (Ask Safin!). They keep pushing Nadal to make him the No. 1 as he has charisma and Federer doesn’t. Or maybe they just want to make things interesting as Federer is making tennis boring. In any case, it is unethical and wrong to fix draws! ATP, you should be ashame of yourselves by tricking Tennis fans and destroying this lovely game.
