Roger Federer's 160 weeks at no.1

Swiss tennis star Roger Federer has now equalled Jim Connors' record of 160 consecutive weeks as world No. 1.

Federer also has the potential of becoming the longest top ranked player. The only other players with longer records than his as No. 1 (but not consecutively) are John McEnroe (170 weeks), Ivan Lendl (268 weeks), Connors (268 weeks) and Pete Sampras (270 weeks).
