Novak Djokovic has been the best tennis player in the world since January 2020, and today he had to hand over the throne to the Russian Daniil Medvedev. Medvedev took the lead even though he did not win the tournament in Acapulco because Djokovic played poorly at the tournament in Dubai.
What tennis got today for the first time in 18 years is that the number one tennis player who is not a member of the “big four” is Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, and Andy Murray, as of today it is Daniil Medvedev.
German Alexander Zverev is in third place, Rafael Nadal jumped to fourth place ahead of Stefanos Tsitsipas who is now fifth, Russian Andrei Rublev is now ahead of Matteo Berrettini. Norwegian Casper Ruud is the eighth tennis player in the world, then Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime is ninth and Hubert Hurkacz is 10th.
As for other tennis players, Filip Krajinovic advanced three places to 41, Dusan Lajovic is the 45th tennis player who also advanced one place, Laslo Djere jumped two positions and is now 49, and Miomir jumped even seven positions. Kecmanovic is still the 56th tennis player in the world.
