The final Masters tournament of the season is underway in Paris, and the "Big 5" are back in action. Nadal saved five match points against countryman Almagro before earning a ticket to the third round, while Federer did not survive his second round match against Frenchman Benneteau.
Here are the ranking projections for Paris:

Federer will keep his #1 ranking even if he only earned 10 points by virtue of his loss, but #2 Nadal can close the gap if he wins Paris. In any event, this should make the ATP World Tour Finals the real "decider" to determine the year-end #1. Federer had a shot to clinch the year-end #1 ranking in Paris if he outperformed Nadal.
