Roger Federer fell to No. 3 in the ATP rankings Monday, the first time since November 2003 he’s been that low. The 16-time Grand Slam champion’s quarterfinal loss at Wimbledon, following seven consecutive appearances in the final, dropped him one spot. He trails No. 1 Rafael Nadal and new No. 2 Novak Djokovic. Federer was No. 1 earlier this season, but he was overtaken in the rankings by Nadal on June 7 after the French Open. Like Nadal, Wimbledon women’s champion Serena Williams remains at No. 1. But her older sister, Venus, dropped from No. 2 to No. 4. Jelena Jankovic moved to second. The Associated Press
