There is a very good chance for Fed to be ranked around 6 or 7 by year end

Halle's been upgraded to an ATP 500 tournament. And Federer will have his chances to win Cincinnati and Basel along with it. It's the majors that are going be a problem though. He will have to play well. I am keeping my hopes on Wimbledon. He almost won it last year with just his serve and an almost non existent forehand. So I will not be surprised if he does well this time around as well. As far as the US open is concerned, that's anybody's guess.

Yeah, emulating last year's grass court and hard court season performance will be very tough for Fed. A Wimb final AND a US Open semi, matching both results will take some doing. And now that both Murray and Wawrinka seem to be finding rhythm, they are going to be snapping at his heels and may overtake him pretty soon. But being ranked no.2 at this stage of his career isn't too shabby, whether or not he can finish the year at that ranking.

2 year system would be ridiculous anyway. Not the world's problem if Rafa gets injured too often and misses tournaments. Well, he wanted all courts to play super slow so that he could come out on top of long rallies. In the current system, the ranking and race to london points converge at the end of the year, so it's the most sensible. We know who was the best player for the year.
