Argentina's Juan Martin Del Potro has dropped out of the Top 10 in the latest ATP rankings released on Monday, swapping places with American John Isner.

The top three remains unchanged with Serbia's Novak Djokovic holding his number one ranking ahead of Spain's Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer of Switzerland.

France's Jo-Wilfried Tsonga moves up to fifth at the expense of Spain's David Ferrer.
