Novak Djokovic, fresh from notching up a record-breaking 23rd Grand Slam title, moved back to the top of the ATP rankings released Monday, while Rafael Nadal dropped out of the top 100. It was the 388th week as the world\u2019s number one for the 36-year-old Djokovic, who jumped two places in the standings after his French Open victory. He beat Spanish rival Carlos Alcaraz, 20, who had held the number one spot until the French Open, in the semi-final. Russian Daniil Medvedev, who crashed out in the first round of Roland Garros, also dropped a place, while Norway\u2019s beaten finalist Casper Ruud stays in fourth, 40 points ahead of Greece\u2019s Stefanos Tsitsipas. Fourteen-time French Open winner Nadal, however, paid the price for his absence through his long-term hip injury, dropping 121 places to 136th in the rankings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
