Djokovic Drops from Top 10 as Zverev Rises Amid Shifting Men's Tennis Rankings
Novak Djokovic's drop to No. 12 marks the first time since 2002 that no member of the 'Big Three'—Djokovic, Federer, and Nadal—appears in the ATP top 10, following Federer and Nadal's recent retirements. Meanwhile, Alexander Zverev has won two Grand Slams in 2024 and is closing in on the No. 1 ranking, though his challenge is tempered by injuries to top rivals Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz. The men's tennis landscape is shifting as emerging players rise amid the absence of long-time leaders.
