ATP: Mischa Zverev and Damir Dzumhur make a leap forward

Two players took advantage of the calm before the Wimbledon storm on the ATP tour: Mischa Zverev and Damir Dzumhur.

Two ATP World Tour 250 tournaments were offered last week as final preparation for Wimbledon, the absolute top players have given up competing in Eastbourne and Antalya. However, Mischa Zverev and Damir Dzuhmur have made the best of this to get in the right mood for the third Grand Slam tournament of the year with successes.

Zverev won for the first time ever on the tour in Eastbourne, moving up 26 positions in the world rankings to 41st, while Dzumhur took 250 points from the Turkish Riviera and improved to 23rd, and the Bosnian could meet the German number one Alexander Zverev in Wimbledon as well.

Rafael Nadal continues to lead the charts ahead of Roger Federer and Zverev. Dominic Thiem is in seventh place.

The ladies have already set it one category higher in Eastbourne, tournament winner Caroline Wozniacki cemented her second place behind Simona Halep. Aryna Sabalenka, who had lost to the Dane in the final despite leading in both sets, made a jump from 45 to 32.

Best German remains Angelique Kerber, who displaced Madison Keys from tenth place in the Eastbourne semi-final. Julia Görges follows on position 13.
