ID:nL9293304 Fitzsimmons said the company was making good progress withboosting cash flow and trimming costs, but he had no furtherdetails on the jobs picture for 2009 "I think that's reallydifficult to say," he said. He declined to place a value on the company's stock ofproperties, but said two projects in Birmingham had 400 units tosell. Redrow's Signature and Debut units had reduced theirunsold property stock by nearly 50 percent to slightly more than350 units (editing by John Stonestreet). In a way, it is good that the season is this long.It is not often that we get to see other players taking the limelight. The Top Ten1. Nikolay Davydenko (406 points)(Last Power Ranking: 1, ATP Ranking: 7)Last Four Tournaments: Moscow R32, Shanghai Masters Winner, BeijingQF, Kuala Lumpur WinnerThe underrated Russian stunned two of the top three players at the ShanghaiMasters, and he continues his position at the top of this week's Power Rankings.His participation in Moscow just a day after humbling Rafael Nadal was strange.He must have been tired after three weeks of continuous tennis, and he would nothave gained any points even by winning the tournament, since he had alreadygained the maximum possible points from the ATP-250 tournaments. 2. Novak Djokovic (390 points)(Last Power Ranking: 3, ATP Ranking: 3)Last Four Tournaments: Shanghai Masters SF, Beijing Winner, U. S.Open SF, Cincinnati Masters FinalsThe man from Serbia has not played in the last few weeks but will soon beseen in action at Roger Federer's hometown in Basel and later at ParisMasters.He seems to have gained his confidence back after an impressive streak ofperformances in his last four tournaments.

Still on the lookout for thefirst Masters shield of this year, and Paris will be his last chance. 3. Roger Federer (367 points)(Last Power Ranking: 4, ATP Ranking: 1)Last Four Tournaments: US Open Finals, Cincinnati Winner, MontrealQF, Wimbledon WinnerIt is to no one's surprise that we haven't seen much in fact, none of theSwiss Maestro in the last few weeks With his year end No. 1 ranking more orless secured, there is really no need to play extra tournaments and open up therisk of an unwanted injury.He resumes his season at his hometown in Basel, and for the first time, inthe "Roger Federer Arena." 5. Ivan Ljubicic (336 points)(Last Power Ranking: N/A, ATP Ranking: 25)Last Four Tournaments: Lyon Winner, Shanghai Masters QF, BeijingQF, Metz R16The former World No 3 veteran is back among the rankings. Jurgen Melzer (309 points)(Last Power Ranking: N/A, ATP Ranking: 28)Last Four Tournaments: Vienna Winner, Shanghai Masters R16, Tokyo R16, Bangkok SFHere is our second surprise entry for the Power Rankings.

After hisimpressive victories over Stepanek and Tipsarvic, he stunned Cilic in the finalsof Vienna with a fabulous straight sets victory to win his first title of theyear and a place in this week's Power Rankings. 7. Juan Martin del Potro (303 points)(Last Power Ranking: 5, ATP Ranking: 5)Last Four Tournaments: Shanghai R64, Tokyo R32, US Open Winner,Montreal FinalsThe post U.S. Open hangover for the Tandilian continues, which is evident by his firstround exits in his last two tournaments, and a last minute withdrawal fromBasel. The season has been long for Del Potro, and after his maiden major title,these are minor debacles after an emotional high, and not a cause for concern atpresent. 8. Marin Cilic (273 points)(Last Power Ranking: 10, ATP Ranking: 13)Last Four Tournaments: Vienna Finals, Shanghai R64, Beijing Finals,US Open QFWithout a doubt, a break through year for Cilic.
