The update of the weekly ATP ranking did not bring good news for the Correntino tennis player Leonardo Mayer (34 years old), who had a marked decline. The Davis Cup champion moved to 229th place, dropping 72 places. Thus, in almost 10 years, it is the first time that it leaves the Top 200.
The last time Yaca Mayer had been out of the top 200 tennis players in the world was on July 25, 2011.
It should be remembered that the best position that the Corrientes achieved, in 18 years of professional career, was in June 2015 when he was among the best 21 in the world. In that position, he managed to stay for two weeks.
As for the remaining players in Corrientes, the ranking improved by one place. Agustín Velotti climbed to position 335, while Ignacio Monzón now occupies position 748.
Sin Top Ten
Argentine Diego Schwartzman left the “top ten” of the world tennis ranking yesterday after inhabiting it for 32 consecutive weeks, a setback that occurred due to having resigned points during his recent participation at Roland Garros.
The ‘Peque’ dropped from tenth place, which is now occupied by Spanish Roberto Bautista Agut, to eleventh, since this year he defended the semifinals of the 2020 edition in Paris and was eliminated in the previous instance, the quarterfinals, against Rafael Nadal .
The Argentine had entered the top ten of the ATP rankings on October 12 of last year when he moved from twelfth to eighth.
The “top ten” is occupied by Novak Djokovic (Serbia, 1); Daniil Medvedev (Russia, 2); Nadal (Spain, 3), Stefanos Tsitsipas (Greece, 4), Dominic Thiem (Austria, 5), Alexander Zverev (Germany, 6), Andrey Rublev (Russia, 7), Roger Federer (Switzerland, 8), Matteo Berrettini ( Italy, 9) and Bautista Agut (Spain, 10).
The remaining Argentines among the 100 best in the world are: Federico Delbonis (48, +3), Guido Pella (62, -1) and Facundo Bagnis (96, +8).
In the female branch, Rosario’s Nadia Podoroska rose two places and was number 40 in the WTA classification, which represents her best historical ranking.
