Nadal: Outside the top 100 for the first time in 20 years

Since Monday morning (June 12), Rafael Nadal has been outside the top 100 in the world rankings, which has been the case since 2003.

The new world rankings, released immediately after Roland Garros ended, brought a change at the top as now Novak Djokovic returned to the top.

However, something different than expected happened. Due to his absence, Rafael Nadal lost the 2000 points he had accumulated since winning the French Open last year and dropped out of the top 100.

Rafa is now 136th in the world rankings. Of course, the most important thing for the huge Spaniard is to solve the problem that has been bothering him and keeping him off the pitch.

For historical reasons, we should mention that we have to go back quite a bit to find out the last time Nadal wasn’t in the top 100.

In particular, the first time Rafa managed to get into it. On April 14, 2003, the Spaniard was ranked 109th in the world and after a week made it into the top 100 tennis players for the first time.

Since then, he has never left the top 100. Even more impressive is that Rafael Nadal was only 16 at the time! Last but not least, they prove his enormous presence in tennis.
