As of Monday, Jannik Sinner is the new king of world tennis. Thanks to reaching the semi-finals of the event and Novak Djokovic’s withdrawal before the quarter-finals, the Italian has taken the leader’s seat with 9,525 points. He has an advantage of almost 1,000 points over Carlos Alcaraz.Due to the injury and withdrawal from Paris, Djokovic lost as many as 1,600 points and became the third tennis player in the world with 8,360 points. Fourth place thanks to reaching the final is taken by Alexander Zverev with 6,885 points.Daniil Medvedev rounds out the top five with 6,485 points. Behind him is Andrei Rublev, with 4,710 points, and Casper Ruud is seventh with 4,025 points. Hubert Hurkacz is only 30 points behind him, and a possible promotion by one place will be his personal ranking. Alex de Minaur and Grigor Dimitrov round out the top ten.

The Polish tennis player did not take advantage of a great opportunity for historic advancement. After reaching the 4th round of the Paris tournament, he gained an additional 110 points compared to last year’s result. And overtaking the seventh Norwegian was very close.

However, everything was ruined by the defeat against Dimitrov. Ruud defended the considerable achievements he achieved by reaching the Roland Garros final in 2023. He reached almost as high in this one. After losing to Zverev in the semi-finals, 400 points were subtracted from his score. And this means an extremely small advantage over the Pole. The Wroclaw native has a chance to move to the top of the rankings even before Wimbledon.
