Roger Federer drops out of top 10 in ATP ranking in 5 Years Low

Djokovic No.1 as Swiss legend Roger Federer drops out of top 10 in ATP rankings Since 2017.





PARIS (AFP) - Roger Federer dropped out of the top 10 in the ATP rankings on Monday (Oct 18) for the first time in almost five years, as newly-crowned Indian Wells champion Cameron Norrie jumped 11 spots.


Federer, 40, has not played due to a right knee injury since losing in the Wimbledon quarter-finals to Hubert Hurkacz in July.


Poland's Hurkacz climbed two places to 10th after making the Indian Wells last eight last week, knocking Federer down to 11th.


It is the first time the 20-time Grand Slam champion has been ranked outside the top 10 since January 2017, when he went on to win the Australian Open following a knee injury.


Wells 2021: Norrie, who beat Georgia's Nikoloz Basilashvili on Sunday to become the first Briton to win the prestigious Indian Wells title, breaks into the top 20 at world No. 15.
