Djokovic takes over No. 1 ranking

Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic replaced Rafael Nadal at No. 1 in the ATP rankings Monday, while runner-up Roger Federer rose one spot to No. 3. “It means a lot at this stage of my career,” said Djokovic, who was last in the top spot nine months ago. This is his 102nd week atop the men’s rankings overall, the eighth most in history. In the WTA rankings, Petra Kvitova’s second Wimbledon title allowed her to improve two places to No. 4. Wimbledon runner-up Eugenie Bouchard reached the top 10 for the first time at No. 7. The top three places did not change, with Serena Williams at No. 1, Li Na at No. 2, and Simona Halep at No. 3. – AP
