Rafa's Battle To Stay At Number 2?

I have had a quick look at the current rankings and even though Rafa is on a high right now after the 8th consecutive win in Monte Carlo does he need to be looking over his shoulder?

The current difference in points between Rafa & Roger is only 835.  Take away both players Clay points from 2011 and that leaves Rafa at Number 3, a whopping 1550 points behind Roger.  Even if Rafa wins this week in Barcelona (final on my birthday) that still leaves a gap of over 1000 points that he needs to gain EXTRA to Roger to stay at Number 2..

Of course mixed into all this is Novak but he is 3555 points ahead so can "afford" to have a slight slide on the clay.

This is something I shall be keeping an eye on over the coming weeks.
