Today, the ATP and WTA tours released their latest men’s and women’s singles rankings. Maintaining his hold atop the men’s singles rankings is Serbia’s Novak Djokovic, who holds a lead over the injured Andy Murray of Great Britain. Murray has targeted his return for this week at the Aegon Championships, a tune up for Wimbledon.
Sitting atop the WTA Rankings again is American Serena Williams, hot off her French Open title win Saturday over third-ranked Maria Sharapova of Russia.
