Novak Djokovic was unable to participate in Indian Wells 2023 (he is not vaccinated against Covid-19 and could not enter the USA), and the Serb lost his position as the leader of the ATP ranking after the Masters 1000 tournament.

Novak Djokovic, who was overtaken by Carlos Alcaraz – Rafael Nadal outside the top 10 after 18 years
