Djokovic regains Number 1 spot
Novak Djokovic returned to the Number 1 spot in ATP rankings published yesterday, despite missing US tournaments last month because of his lack of a Covid vaccination.
Carlos Alcaraz had taken the top ranking from Djokovic after victory in Indian Wells, but the Spaniard bowed out of the semifinals of the Miami Open on Friday to allow the Serb back for a record 380th week as Number 1.
Djokovic has a 380-point lead over Alcaraz, with Greece’s StefanosTsitsipas in third, more than 1,000 points behind the leading duo.
