Djokovic at the Top

After defeating a sharp Roger Federer in 5 sets to win his 1st Wimbledon in 3 years, Novak Djokovic regained the No. 1 ranking in men's tennis, swapping places with Rafael Nadal atop the ATP Tour.
Both Djokovic & Nadal, who have split the last 2 major titles, are miles ahead of the rest of the field with second-place Nadal with more than double the points of Federer, who jumped back up to No. 3 with his runner-up at Wimbledon. The gap between Djokovic & Nadal, however, is less than 500 points (see the rankings here).
Nadal could have held the top ranking without Wimbledon had he survived a bit longer than he did but he was stunned, along with the rest of the tennis world, with his 4th-round loss to Australian wild card Nick Kyrgios.
The biggest upward move in the top 10 belonged to Milos Raonic. The big-serving Canadian moved up 3 spots to No. 6 after his semifinal run at Wimbledon. Meanwhile, Andy Murray plummeted after his straight-sets loss in the quarterfinals to Grigor Dimitrov. For Murray it was a lot of points lost given he won Wimbledon last year and gives him his lowest ranking(10th) in six years.
