Tennis Podcast Are Zverev and Svitolina US Open favourites? Plus Roger Federer injury latest

Alexander Zverev shocked second seed Roger Federer in straight sets in the Montreal Masters final to win his fifth title of the season and announce himself as an emerging star for the US Open.

Federer's withdrawal means Nadal, who lost in the third round at Montreal, will return to No. 1 when new ATP rankings are released August 21.

Instead, it's Nadal who dethroned Andy Murray from the top to regain his crown. The last time the Spaniard was atop the men's singles ranking was on 6 July 2014.

"There's a young generation up and coming".

Wimbledon champion Roger Federer has withdrawn from the Western & Southern Open, which he has won seven times. In all likelihood we will see more of him in the future, and maybe by then his sponsor will have replaced the headwear-although if he's at all superstitious, he should never take that dumb thing off his head. "It's part of our sport", Nadal said of the mass withdrawals. And it would be placed in a better position to rise to the forefront of the world ranking at the end of the tournament in Cincinnati next Sunday. I skip many more events than the rest of my competitors.

The development of the situation has opened a fantastic opportunity for Rafael Nadal to improve his record as the world number one. "For me personally obviously to be back to that position is something special", Nadal said on Monday.

Federer was also unable to defend his title there previous year having withdrawn from the entire 2016 season following Wimbledon.

With the U.S. Open, the final Grand Slam of the year, set to get underway on August 28, the ATP rankings have seen some big changes in the top five due to injuries.

"It's bad news for Roger he's not playing", Nadal said. "When I had break point, I got after it, put good returns on the court and played aggressively".
