Meanwhile, top of ATP Top 10 remains the same: Djokovic still World Number 1, but it’s a historic ranking

As usual, every Monday a new ATP ranking comes out, and what we have been seeing for 412 weeks now, we continue to witness. Novak Djokovic is in first place, with 9,855 points, starting his 413th week as the best in the world, but this ranking is also historic for another reason.

ATP Rankings: Novak Djokovic has one hand on year-end No 1 ranking and  sensational 400-week milestone

Novak even managed to increase his advantage over Carlos Alcaraz who is in the second, so now he has 750 points more (he had 600 more last week), which is down to the young Spaniard.

Alcaraz failed to defend his title in Buenos Aires so he lost 150 points.

Jannik Sinner jumped from fourth to third place, which is his career best, but the ATP ranking is also historic because of another thing.

Namely, for the first time in history, there is not a single tennis player in the top of the ranking who plays one-handed backhand. Roger Federer was one such, there for a long time, then also Stefanos Tsitsipas, however, both of them are gone from the Top 10 and now some new pages of history are being written.
