Daniil Medvedev's first title of the year in the Paris Masters moved the Russian to the fourth place in ATP rankings released on Monday as the world's top players move onto London.

Medvedev's 5-7, 6-4, 6-1 win against Alexander Zverev of Germany on Sunday lifted him above 39-year-old Swiss Roger Federer who has sat out most of the season following an operation.

Novak Djokovic of Serbia has already clinched the year-end number one ranking for the sixth time as he heads into the ATP Masters starting at London's O2 Arena on Sunday.

Milos Raonic of Canada made the biggest move of the week, rising three places to 14th after reaching the semi-finals in Paris.
