ATP Rankings Winners & Losers Pre-Wimbledon: Novak Djokovic's boost, Hubert Hurkacz & Sebastian Korda reach milestones (1)

Novak Djokovic has received an unexpected ATP Rankings boost ahead of Wimbledon at the expense of Carlos Alcaraz, while Hubert Hurkacz and Sebastian Korda have both secured new milestones.

Djokovic dropped from world No 1 to third position after the French Open, but he is set to climb back to second spot despite not playing since Roland Garros.

The 37-year-old Serbian underwent surgery on his right knee after suffering a meniscus tear at the Paris Grand Slam and he faces a race to be fit for Wimbledon, which will begin in just over a week.

If Djokovic does compete at the All England Club, he will be the No 2 seed, while reigning Wimbledon champion Alcaraz would be seeded third.

Alcaraz occupied the No 2 position in the ATP Rankings heading into the ATP 500 tournament at Queen’s Club, where he was the defending champion.

The 21-year-old Spaniard’s second round defeat to Jack Draper in London means he will drop 450 points, taking his points total from 8,530 to 8,130 — allowing Djokovic to leapfrog him.

Alex de Minaur reached a career-high ranking of world No 7 after winning the Stuttgart title last week, but he will slip to ninth place following his opening round exit at Queen’s. The 25-year-old Australian is set to drop 255 points, having been a runner-up at the grass-court event in 2023.

Hubert Hurkacz will swap places with de Minaur on the back of his run to the final at the ATP 500 tournament in Halle, where he will take on Jannik Sinner today. Seventh position will be the 27-year-old’s Pole new career-best ranking.

Sinner has extended his lead as the world No 1 with his success in Halle and he will be over 1,500 points clear of second-placed Djokovic if he claims his first grass-court title.
