    India's top singles player Somdev Devvarman slipped further down by two places and is now ranked 133rd. Two months back, Devvarman was ranked 93rd but a string of poor results coupled with injury problems have seen the Indian fall down the pecking order steadily.

    The only change in the top 10 of the men's singles rankings was Spain's David Ferrer, who jumped one place to sixth.
