Roger Federer slips out of world top 10

Former No.1 and 20-time grand slam champion Roger Federer has tumbled out of the top 10 of the latest world rankings released by the ATP.

The 40-year-old Swiss, who is currently out of action following knee surgery, fell two places to 11th.

A change to the ranking structure during the coronavirus pandemic previously kept his position elevated despite his injury-hampered form.

It is just the 12th week in 19 years that Federer is outside the top 10 – it last occurred between November 2016 and January 2017 when he was also injured.

Serbian Novak Djokovic remains No.1 with 11,430 points and has an advantage of 1800 to second-placed Russian Daniil Medvedev.

Briton Cameron Norrie gained 11 spots to a career-high of 15th after winning his first Masters-level event in Indian Wells on Sunday.
