PARIS: Novak Djokovic, who won the Shanghai Masters on Sunday, has closed the gap on Roger Federer at the top of the latest ATP rankings, as the Swiss player enters his 300th week as world number one.

The Serb, who beat Britain's Andy Murray 5-7, 7-6 (13/11), 6-3 to take his 13th masters series title, is now just 195 points behind Federer, who was beaten in the semifinal of the tournament, and could even take his position in the coming weeks.

Neither of the players is due to play in the three tournaments scheduled for this week in Moscow, Vienna and Stockholm.

The only change in the latest world top 10, published on Monday, is Czech player Tomas Berdych and France's Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, who a week after changing position to 7th and 6th, are again back to 6th and 7th respectively.

Berdych beat the French number one in the quarterfinal in Shanghai.

Meanwhile, the former world number two, Tommy Haas, of Germany, makes a return to the top 20 at the age of 34, despite his career appearing to be over due to a succession of injuries. He has not been in the top 20 since May 2010.

In the WTA rankings, Belarus' Victoria Azarenka remained on top after her victory in Linz, Austria, 1,800 points ahead of Russia's Maria Sharapova and 3,055 ahead of Serena Williams, of the United States.

Heather Watson, meanwhile, jumped from 71st to 50th after giving Britain their first WTA tour victory since 1988 by winning in Osaka, Japan.
