PARIS: Daniil Medvedev returned to the top of the ATP rankings on Monday, ahead of Alexander Zverev, with Novak Djokovic slipping out of the top two for the first time in nearly four years. The 26-year-old Russian, who was surprisingly beaten by Tim van Rijthoven in the final at ‘s-Hertogenbosch on Sunday, briefly occupied the number one spot for two weeks at the end of February and the beginning of March. But with Djokovic losing in the quarter-finals at the French Open, where he was defending champion, the door opened for Medvedev to rise again to top spot.
The grass court season kicked off this week, seeing the return of last year's Wimbledon runner-up Matteo Berrettini following an operation in March. He defeated Andy Murray to win the Boss Open in what was a successful tournament for the Brit, as he ended a six-year wait for two big milestones.

Daniil Medvedev has replaced Novak Djokovic as men's world No. 1 on Monday, just two weeks before this year's Wimbledon Championships where he is barred due to his Russian nationality.
