Can Federer reclaim his No.1 ranking by the end of 2012?

I feel Federer has an outside chance of reclaiming the No.1 spot provided he wins a few of more big tournaments.

I think Federer has a good chance as Nadal, his arch nemesis is waning due to injuries. I always thought the Federer and Djokovic were more evenly matched. So, Federer can indeed get back into the top spot (IMHO).

He could catch Djokovic, as Joker won't add points @ tournaments he won last year.

He'll need Nadal to have injuries.

But if he can with the USO, he always piles on points through the end of the year (especially ATP Finals).

Federer may be rank no.3 but he is a living legend and a champion in all ways and everyone including Djokovic and Nadal accepts that..Federer regaining the no.1 rank is not impossible but its going to be tough.The only recent tournament he won is the madrid open and Nadal is on a roll now winning a few previous tournaments which really boosted his confidence..Djokovic is not playing like last year and is already started shaking up which puts Nadal as the current favorite player to regain and hold on to the No.1 for now.

Good idea, Boca. However, we will retain it for our posters' bragging rights that they predicted it
