US Open 2012 Men's Rankings: Andy Murray, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Djokovic Top Players in Tournament

Tennis fans hang in tight. Though the tournaments have wrapped up in the 2012 London Olympic games, the U.S. Open is about three weeks away.  The Men's rankings have been released with familiar names at the top. Here are the Top 10 players in the Men's rankings. 

The No. 1 spot will go to Roger Federer, who is fresh from capturing silver in the Olympic games.

The No. 2 player in the U.S. Open is Serbia's Novak Djokovic.

Rafael Nadal, who did not compete in the 2012 London Olympics as he attempts to recover from knee issues, will get the No. 3 spot. 

The No. 4 spot belongs to the reigning gold medalist from the Men's Singles at the 2012 London Olympics, Andy Murray. Yes. In case you have been under a rock or been away from any technological devices, Murray captured gold in the finals. He is the reason why No. 1 Federer is a silver medalist.

No. 5 goes to the Spaniard David Ferrer who, despite being upset by Japan's Kei Nishikori, had a solid campaign at the Olympic games just missing the quarterfinals. 

No. 6 is the animated Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. No. 7 is Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic. No. 8 is Janko Tipsarevic of Serbia. No. 9 is Juan Martin del Potro, infamous for losing the 19-17 final set in the semis to Feder. Rounding out the Top 10 is Spain's Nicolas Almagro.

The U.S. Open will launch on August 27 and run all the way until September 9.
