Rank Movers 1991-1999

For each year, this page contains a list of players who climbed up or dropped down the most spots in the world rankings during that year.
Players who climbed up hundreds of spots in the world ranking haven't necessarily made a lot of points. The difference between rank 1000 and rank 200 is about 200 points (compare to Sampras who had over 4500 points in the end of 1997!). The rank movement is rather an indicator for a successful entry into the Tour, or for a successful comeback after an injury.
Many players who have made it to the top 30 up to now once had such a successful entry, like Rafter in 1991, Rusedski in 1992, Philippoussis in 1994 and Kiefer in 1995.
Let's wait and see if the best climbers of the recent years (Hrbaty, Gimelstob, Salzenstein, Hewitt, Whitehouse, Ferrero) will be able to make themselves a name within the coming years.
