Roger Federer out of the Top 10 rankings for the first time in 5 years

Roger Federer dropped out of the top 10 in the ATP rankings on Monday for the first time in almost five years, as newly-crowned Indian Wells champion Cameron Norrie jumped 11 spots.

40-year-old Federer has not played due to a right knee injury since losing in the Wimbledon quarter-finals to Hubert Hurkacz in July.

Hurkacz climbed two places to 10th after making the Indian Wells last week, knocking Federer down to 11th place.

Federer will continue to fall down the rankings at a rapid pace in the coming weeks and months as he remains sidelined.

This is the first time that the 20-time Grand Slam champion has been ranked outside the top 10 since January 2017, when he went on to win the Australian Open following a knee injury.
