Currently ranked number five on earth, Rafael Nadalas seeding at the forthcoming Roland Garros 2013 tournament could be improved to at least number four, that's, if the endorsement of French Open board member and former French Davis Cup captain Guy Forget is accepted. In an interview with Reuters, Forget said that the match must look into giving an increased seeding for Nadal considering that he's won an archive 7 French Open titles. Nadal trailed fourth-ranked David Ferrer in the rankings and it is unlikely he could overtake his compatriot over time for the French Open. The 11-time Grand Slam winner has 1,590 points to defend ahead of the claycourt Slam while Ferrer must defend 830 points. Should the initial rankings maintain, Nadal might fulfill top-ranked Novak Djokovic in the quarterfinals. aSince we can see them meeting in the finals of the greatest events in the following days, it'd be a shame to own them [meet] in a in Roland Garros,a Forget said. aThe rules state the Grand Slam events have the directly to modify the seeding regarding the situation of the players. Wimbledon has been doing that before. I'd not think it is irrational to improve the seeds,a he added.
