Andy Murray climbs 457 places in ATP rankings

PARIS, France – Three-time Grand Slam champion Andy Murray climbed 457 places in the ATP world rankings on Monday, August 6, despite withdrawing from the Washington Open before his quarterfinal last week.

The former world number one is now ranked 375 as he continues his comeback from an 11-month injury layoff.

Murray also pulled out of the Rogers Cup in Toronto, though, after winning his last-16 match in Washington DC at 3 am.

Alexander Zverev remained as the world number 3 by successfully defending his Washington title with a straight-sets win over Alex De Minaur, while 4th-ranked Juan Martin del Potro was beaten in the Los Cabos final by Fabio Fognini, who jumps a spot to 14th.
