Novak Djokovic cried champion at Wimbledon for the seventh time this Sunday, after beating Nick Kyrgios in the final. In this way, the Serbian added his twenty-first Grand Slam title, surpassing Roger Federer (20) on the list of top winners and remaining just one behind Rafael Nadal (22). However, after the update of the ATP ranking, the brand new champion woke up this Monday in seventh place, four steps below the position he occupied.
What happened? It is that by decision of the ATP, WTA and ITF, Wimbledon did not award points for the ranking because the Grand Slam decided to prohibit the participation of Russian and Belarusian tennis players due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. So, Djokovic could not add the 2000 points that would have corresponded to him for his consecration and also subtracted that same amount by not being able to defend the units that he had as champion of 2021.
