DjokoviC rEGAins No. 1 ATP rAnkinG

Novak Djokovic is back at No. 1 in the ATP rankings after a twoyear absence, and the first man in nearly two decades to rise to the top spot after being outside the top 20 in the same season. Djokovic moved up from No. 2 to overtake Spain’s Rafael Nadal on Monday. When the 31-year-old from Serbia fell to No. 22 in May after beginning the year with a 6-6 record while recovering from surgery on his right elbow, it was his lowest ranking since he was 22nd in 2006 as a teenager. Djokovic has gone 43-5 since,

including Grand Slam titles at Wimbledon and the U.S. Open.
