Interestingly, no other player in the same category even managed to remain at the top of the ATP rankings for six years. Swiss legendary tennis star Roger Federer is the second on the list as he remained as the world number one for 310 weeks which is equivalent to five years and 50 weeks.
America’s Pete Sampras is third on the list as he remained at the top of the rankings for 286 weeks which is equivalent to five years and 26 weeks.
Djokovic is currently taking part in the ATP 1000 event named Indian Wells where he already booked his place in the third round after beating Australia’s Aleksandar Vukic in the round of 64 with a score of 6-2, 5-7, 6-3. He is now set to face Italy’s Luca Nardi on Tuesday.
