"Zero Pointers" / "Missed Opportunities"
This will be the Zero-Pointers list for 2010.

Beginning in 2000, the rankings automatically count all grand slam and masters
series events. If a player's ranking is high enough for him to make the
acceptance list or if he plays in the main draw by direct acceptance, or as a
qualifier, lucky loser, wild card, or special exempt, the event will
automatically count towards his ranking total. For those players who are ranked
high enough to enter a mandatory event but do not participate, no matter what
the reason, those players get a "0" for that tournament.

A player's withdrawal from an ATP World Tour 500 event whether on time or of
after the 12 noon deadline, shall result in a zero (0) point included as one
of his best of four (4) results. Further non-consecutive withdrawals shall
result in a zero (0) point allocation replacing the next best positive result
for each additional withdrawal . Players with multiple consecutive withdrawals
who are out of competition for 30 days or longer due to injury will not be subject
to a ranking penalty as long as verified and approved medical forms are provided;
or, a player shall not have the ranking penalty imposed if he completes the
Promotional Activities requirement as specified under "Repeal of Withdrawal Fines
and/or Penalties" or if the on-site withdrawal procedures apply.

Here is a list for each tournament of players who officially received a 0 for
their point total.
