ఆదివారం జరిగిన రోజర్స్ కప్ ఫైనల్​ గెలిచిన రఫెల్ నాదల్.. యూఎస్​ ఓపెన్​ కోసం సిద్ధమవుతున్నాడు. కానీ ఈ విజయం ర్యాంకింగ్స్​లో జకోవిచ్​ను అధిగమించేందుకు సరిపోలేదు. ఏటీపీ సోమవారం ప్రకటించిన ర్యాంకుల్లో సెర్బియా స్టార్​ జకోవిచ్​ అగ్రస్థానాన్ని కాపాడుకున్నాడు. నాదల్, ఫెదరర్ రెండు, మూడు స్థానాల్లో కొనసాగుతున్నారు.

డబ్ల్యూటీఏ మహిళల టెన్నిస్ ర్యాంకింగ్స్​లో ఆస్ట్రేలియా ఓపెన్​ విజేత నవోమి ఒసాకా అగ్రస్థానానికి చేరింది. గత వారం జరిగిన రోజర్స్​ కప్​ క్వార్టర్​ ఫైనల్​లో సెరెనా చేతిలో ఓడిన ఈ క్రీడాకారిణీ.. రెండో రౌండ్​లో ఆష్లే బార్టీని ఓడించడం కలిసొచ్చింది.

జనవరిలో మొదటిసారి నంబర్ వన్​ స్థానాన్ని పొందింది జపాన్​కు చెందిన ఒసాకా. ఆస్ట్రేలియా, యూఎస్ ఓపెన్​ గెలిచిన తొలి జపాన్ క్రీడాకారిణీగా ఘనత సాధించింది.

ఏడు వారాల పాటు అగ్రస్థానంలో కొనసాగిన ఆష్లే బార్టీ రెండో స్థానానికి పడిపోయింది. ప్లిస్కోవా మూడు స్థానంలో నిలిచింది. మాజీ నంబర్​వన్ సెరెనా విలియమ్స్ ఎనిమిదో స్థానంతో సరిపెట్టుకుంది.

STORYLINE:
REMEMBERING WOODSTOCK AS 50TH ANNIVERSARY NEARS
They danced at dawn on a muddy hillside and dodged drenching rain. They barely slept and left behind sodden socks and sleeping bags, but gained an enduring sense of community.
Fifty years later, memories of the anarchic weekend of 15-18 August 196, remain sharp among people who were in the crowd and on the stage for the historic Woodstock festival.
Woodstock was staged 80 miles northwest of New York City on a bucolic hillside owned by dairy farmer Max Yasgur. It was a great spot for peaceful vibes, but miserable for handling the hordes coming in by car.
Rock photographer Henry Diltz got to the site early during the setup: "All these hippie carpenters were sawing and hammering, building this huge plywood deck right at the bottom of this big, green hillside," he said.
The enduring story of Woodstock is that more than 400,000 people jammed into an area of about a square mile without a disaster.
Kevin Rheden was an 18-year-old from the Hudson River Valley.  "I knew everything was going to be all right no matter what I did or where I was going to go."
David Crosby of Crosby, Stills & Nash recalls how the festival served as a distraction to the social upheaval of the times.
"For a minute, we were hopeful. For a minute we were not facing the Vietnam War. For a minute we were not facing losing the Kennedys. For a minute, Dr. King's death wasn't hanging over us. For a minute, we were behaving like decent human beings."
Annette Nanes, a college student reclaimed how she and her colleagues abandoned their car. "We joined the line of people walking down the road on the way to Woodstock."
Little went as planned. Fences came down. It became a free concert. The show ran late. Food was scarce. It rained.
William Tindale was among the state troopers dispatched to Bethel: "We just didn't know what was going to happen. We just sat in a car. It was pretty boring. But we were just concerned about them getting into a riot or something."
More than 30 acts performed, and a few had career-defining moments. Because the concert ran into Monday morning, many missed Jimi Hendrix's iconic set.  
Diltz was taken by surprise when he first heard Hendrix's rendition. "I remember my first thought was, 'Why is he playing that? That's the song of the government that we hate for trying to send us off to war ... That's their song. No, wait a minute. That's our song. He's reclaiming it for us.'
The people who left behind a trampled, littered hillside knew they had been through a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
