Bulgaria’s best tennis player Grigor Dimitrov has advanced to the 6th position in the ATP rankings, which is his personal best so far. Dimitrov climbed the tennis rankings, because Novak Djokovic (Serbia) and Andy Murray (Great Britain) were unable to defend their points from the Paris Masters since they did not take part at the tournament. Thus, Djokovic dropped to the 12th position in the ATP ranking and remained outside top 10 for the first time in ten years. Andy Murray is 16th in the new ATP ranking. Rafael Nadal (Spain) is the current leader, followed by Roger Federer (Switzerland). Alexander Zverev (Germany) advanced to the 3rd position in the ATP rankings.
