Roger Federer (40) is no longer the best-ranked Swiss player in the ATP world rankings. The 20-time Grand Slam winner drops to position 96 and thus directly behind Henri Laaksonen (30).
Federer’s 250 points from the ATP grass tournament in Halle were removed from the ranking. Most recently, the almost 41-year-old Basel bidder did not appear as Swiss number 1 in the ATP ranking in July 2017, when he was classified behind Stan Wawrinka (37). French-speaking Switzerland is currently in 265th place.
Federer is completely out of the ranking
On July 11, Federer will disappear completely from the ATP ranking after almost 25 years. Then the 600 points from his final entry in Wimbledon in 2019, which are still counted due to the Corona exception rule, will also be deleted.

Federer was listed in the ATP ranking for the first time on September 22, 1997 – as number 803 in the world. On February 2, 2004, he led the world rankings for the first time. After that, he was enthroned at the top of the ATP ranking for a total of 310 weeks.
Federer fought his last serious fight almost a year ago when he failed in the quarterfinals at Wimbledon against Hubert Hurkacz (25) from Poland. He then had a third operation on his right knee. The 20-time Grand Slam winner is planning his comeback at his home tournament in Basel next October. (SDA)
