Who Is World Number One In Tennis Now?

[bond]

Andy has won Wimbledon, good on him, but overall, does that make him number one in the world, or does Djokavic still hold that ? Wimbledon isn't the only slam..

Djoakvic will still be world number one when the latest ATP rakings are annoounced in a few days.

If Murray defends the American, then it will be really close.....

Currently Noavk is about 3000 points clear of Andy Murray, who in turn is 2000 points clear of David Ferrer. Murray might have a shot at getting to world number one in the build=up to the US Open -- there are two tournaments before then that he is defending maybe 200 points, and Djokovic defending 1600 with 2000 available. Victories or strong performances there and Murray could catch and even overtake Novak, but then he has to defend his US Open title or at least make the final again if he wants to get to #1.

The key problem is that Murray doesn't usually have a very good clay-court season that makes up a massive number of points available, while Novak and others do very well there. So Murray's journey to #1 is some way off yet, unless Novak has a horrible run in the next two months or so.

Still, right now all he'll care about is that he's a two-time Slam Champion!

The rankings are based on the results in the previous fifty-two weeks. This means you have to do at least as well in this year's tournaments as you did in the same ones last year or you lose points.
