London: Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic has replaced Rafael Nadal at No. 1 in the ATP rankings, while runner-up Roger Federer has moved up one spot to No. 3.
In all, there were eight changes in the top 10 Monday, a day after Djokovic beat Federer in five sets for his second championship at the All England Club.
Djokovic was last ranked No. 1 nine months ago. This is his 102nd week atop the rankings overall, the eighth-most in history.
Andy Murray dropped five spots to No. 10 by losing in the quarterfinals a year after winning Wimbledon.
Federer, who was bidding for a record eighth title at the grass-court major tournament, swapped places with Swiss countryman Stan Wawrinka, who slid to No. 4.
