Among tennis players overall, the Spaniard bagged fifth place, behind Serena Williams, Naomi Osaka, Emma Raducanu, and Simona Halep. The 22-time Grand Slam singles champion jumped 10 places from the 26th spot last year.Meanwhile, Novak Djokovic has dropped from ninth to 46th in the list of the most marketable athletes in the world. The Serbian great's COVID vaccination-related controversies led to a huge divide of opinion among fans and also affected his brand associations, which in turn affected his marketability index score.Meanwhile, Roger Federer, who recently retired from professional tennis, was ranked 23rd overall and just behind the Spaniard among tennis players.
