GDPR Compliance. Now let us come to number off weeks at Number 1. Can Novak overtake them? At present he is at week To equal Connors and Lendl, he has to remain Number 1 until 9th September and 23rd September respectively. Novak currently is at points while Nadal is at and Federer is at Fourth and fifth are Thiem and Sascha Zverev with and He therefore has a whopping points lead over Rafa and points against Federer.

Leads over other players from four and below is and more points. The way the big three are playing coupled with the inconsistency of the youngsters can lead us to safely assume that the only threat to Number 1 is from Nadal and Federer. Novak had played all three and will be defending points, since he had lost in the third round at Canadian Open to Tsitsipas and was champion at both Cincinnati and the US Open.

Federer will be defending just points as he had skipped the Canadian Open, lost in finals at Cincinnati and crashed out in fourth round of the US Open. Rafa on the other hand had won at Canadian Open and had reached the semi-finals at the US Open where he had opted out due to injury. Prediction; This is easy. Since Novak has a humongous lead of points and he is probably more comfortable on hard courts than even grass where he has won five Wimbledon titles, I expect him to do well. Federer sits pretty at the top of the record books with Sampras closest to him overall.

Federer pulls off outrageous shot against Bemelmans. What does he think about it all? Roger Federer. A participation of the Spaniard in all indoor indoor tournaments in Europe shortly after the exhausting trip to Australia can be ruled out.

Djokovic, who is currently the world number one at weeks, will start his st week as the tennis leader on March 8 and crack Roger Federer's record. The Swiss was at the top of the ATP rankings for weeks during his career.
