The ATP released its final set of rankings for 2018 and a familiar trio is on top. Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer once again graced the top of the leaderboard.

It was the seventh time those three have led the ATP’s rankings at season’s end, per ESPN. The three stars are all elder statesmen of the game with Federer at age 37, Nadal at age 32 and Djokovic at 31.

Djokovic finished at the top with a staggering 9,045 points and with almost twice as much total prize money as the other two competitors each won this year. He finished with a win-loss record of 53-12 and won four titles, which included Wimbledon and the U.S. Open. The Serbian superstar also collected a staggering $15,934,672 in prize money in 2018.

Behind him was Nadal, who finished with 7,480 points and an impressive 45-4 record. The Spaniard won five titles on the year, which included his 11th French Open title. The clay-court specialist walked away with a cool $8,663,347 in prize money, demonstrating the huge gap in winnings between the top two ATP players in 2018.

Finally, Federer finished third (6,420), though the gap between he and Nadal was not as wide. The Swiss legend ended the year with a 48-10 record and four titles to his name. He collected his sixth Australian Open. Federer's total winnings were relatively close to Nadal, as he finished with $8,629,233.

Federer finished just ahead of German Alexander Zverev, who finished with 6,385 points.
