Dzumhur among the 56 best Tennis Players

The latest ATP list was published yesterday and it has a great importance. Apart from the fact that Đoković set a new record in the number of points (16.950), yesterday’s list is also showing who is going to the Olympic Games in Rio.

The best 56 tennis players on the rankings who meet conditions for competing in the Olympic Games are going to Rio de Janeiro.

Conditions are quite simple. Four players from one country can perform in a single, and players must be members of the Davis Cup three times in the past four years.

Among the 56 players who entered the Olympics with yesterday’s rankings is Damir Džumhur, and remaining eight places in the tournament will be taken by tennis players who will be invited.

Thirty six of the tennis players who are better positioned than Džumhur on the ATP rankings (Džumhur is 87^th) will not go to the Olympics. Four of them quit the tournament while 31 of them do not meet condition for the number of competitors from one country or they lack performances in the Davis Cup. Aljaž Bedene does not have the right to compete because he changed sports citizenship during the Olympic cycle.

Tennis players who are better positioned than Džumhur but will not go to Rio are: Rafael Nadal (4^th), Dominic Thiem (6^th, quit), John Isner (17^th, quit), Nick Kyrgios (17^th, quit), Kevin Anderson (19^th), Feliciano Lopez (22^nd, quit), Bernard Tomić (23^rd, quit), Benoit Paire (25^th), Jack Sock (27^th, quit), Ivo Karlović (28^th, quit), Lucas Pouille (29^th), Albert Ramos-Vinolas (32^nd), Jeremy Chardy (33^rd), Aleksandar Zverev (38^th), Steve Johnson (39^th), Pablo Carreno Busta (43^rd), Marcel Granollers (45^th), Nicolas Almagro (47^th), Nicolas Mahut (49^th), Giudo Pella (50^th), Guillermo Garcia-Lopez (53^rd ), Adrian Mannarino (55^th), Denis Kudla (56^th), Aljaž Bedene (58^th, has no right to perform), Ernests Gulbis (59^th), Paul-Henri Mathieu (60^th), Taylor Fritz (65^th), John Millman (66^th), Rajeev Ram (72^nd), Inigo Cervantes (75^th), Mihail Južni (76^th), Pierre-Hugues Herbert (79^th), Tommy Robredo (81^st), Rogerio Dutra Silva (83^rd), Kyle Edmund (84^th) and Dustin Brown (86^th).
