Rafael Nadal resigns as ATP players' body vice-president after lack of movement on changes to ranking system Rather, it has been triggered by the lack of movement on Nadal's pet project, the introduction of a two-year ranking system. He has argued repeatedly that this is the best way to prolong the careers of the leading players, by making it easier for them to withdraw from tournaments when they have physical ailments. But Federer took the view that Krajicek, who now works as tournament director of the Rotterdam Open, was insufficiently experienced in the business world. The result was that Drewett, formerly the director of the ATP's operations in the Pacific and Asian regions, came in as a compromise candidate. The player council consists of 12 members, including six members of the world top 100 in men's singles. Meanwhile, back on the courts at Miami's Crandon Park, Britain's Heather Watson was eliminated late on Sunday at the hands of world No 1 Victoria Azarenka. It was a one-sided match, as might be expected when a player ranked No 129 goes up against one who hasn't lost a match all year. But at least the scoreline (6-0, 6-2) was an improvement on the same players" meeting in Melbourne in January, where Watson only managed to win one game. "My coach told me I made about 46 unforced errors," said Watson afterwards, "so I wasn't making her play enough. I expected to do a lot better tonight, because I had been playing well all week [the highlight being a career-best win over world No. 25 Lucie Safarova]. But I didn't get pumped up until the end and you can't do that.
