CNN —Rafael Nadal has dropped out of the world’s top 100 for the first time in 20 years as he continues to recover from the hip injury he suffered in January’s Australian Open.
Nadal, who turned 37 during the French Open, has now fallen from world No.
When announcing his decision to undergo surgery, Nadal said that next season will be his last on the ATP Tour.
Djokovic ousted Alcaraz in the semifinal of the French Open, helping him rise two places from third to begin his 388th week at world No.
Greece’s Stefanos Tsitsipas, who was beaten by Alcaraz in straight sets in the quarterfinals, rounds out the world’s top five.
