ATP stats and information guru Greg Sharko takes a look at the numbers behind the stories on the ATP circuit.

NEW FACES, CHANGING PLACES

There were five players who finished in the Top 10 South African Airways ATP Rankings in 2008 who weren't in that group from the previous year. (Final rankings will be determined after the Tennis Masters Cup.) It's the biggest changeover in the Top 10 from the previous season since 2003:

2008 Rank (as of Nov. 3)	Player	Previous Year-End Rank
4	Andy Murray #	No. 11
7	Jo-Wilfried Tsonga #	No. 43
8	Juan Martin del Potro #	No. 44
9	Gilles Simon #	No. 29
10	James Blake	No. 13

# First time in year-end Top 10

2003 Year-End Rank	Player	Previous Year-End Rank
5	Guillermo Coria	No. 45
6	Rainer Schuettler	No. 33
8	David Nalbandian	No. 12
9	Mark Philippoussis	No. 83
10	Sebastien Grosjean	No. 17
