Nadal 10th in Rankings; French Open Champ Wawrinka to No. 4

PARIS — Nine-time French Open champion Rafael Nadal's loss in the quarterfinals dropped him three places to No. 10 in Monday's ATP rankings, his lowest spot since April 2005, while champion Stan Wawrinka rose from No. 9 to No. 4.

Novak Djokovic maintained a healthy lead at No. 1, despite losing to Wawrinka on Sunday in the final at Roland Garros. That prevented Djokovic from completing a career Grand Slam.

It was Djokovic who beat Nadal this year, ending the Spaniard's 39-match French Open winning streak.

Wawrinka's 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 victory in the final — a year after he lost in the first round in Paris — gave him a second major title.
