Wimbledon champ Murray cuts gap on No. 1 Djokovic
Print Edition
ANDY Murray’s Wimbledon title allowed him to make a dent yesterday in the still-substantial gap in the ATP rankings between him and No. 1 Novak Djokovic, last year’s champion at the All England Club.
Entering Wimbledon, Djokovic had nearly twice as many points as No. 2 Murray, 16,950 to 8,915. But after Djokovic’s loss in the third round, and Murray’s third grand slam trophy, the margin is 15,040 to 10,195. Serena Williams’ seventh title at Wimbledon and record-tying 22nd at a grand slam tournament kept her at No. 1 in the WTA rankings, while runner-up Angelique Kerber jumped two spots to No. 2. The 34-year-old Williams, the oldest No. 1 in WTA history, has held the top spot since February 2013. Garbine Muguruza, who beat Williams in the French Open final but lost in Wimbledon’s second round, fell from No. 2 to No. 3.
