ATP ranking makes it official: Jannik Sinner No. 1
Historic moment for blue and world tennis
Alcaraz è took Roland Garros (third Slam of his young career), Sinner, on the other hand, the ATP ranking head. Now even the computerized system has sanctioned what was already certain for days, that is, Sinner number 1 in the world. His official points are 9525 (9480 live), which is more than any other ranked tennis player.
A huge satisfaction for the Italian star and for the whole Italian tennis movement. After starting 2024 as number 4 in the world, Sinner completed his climb, conquering a peak that seemed, just a few months ago, very complicated, if not impossible.
Since è the computerized ranking came into effect (1973), Sinner è the 29° number 1 in the world, certifying how difficult it is to boast the title of the best tennis player in the world. Now he will have to fight to hold onto this position as long as possible. Clearly, the most dangerous opponent è Alcaraz, winner of Roland Garros (after beating Sinner in the semifinals).
The Spaniard bypassed Djokovic who, due to meniscus surgery on his right knee, may lose other important positions in the near future. Alcaraz, at the moment, has 8,580 points and, not è a secret, aims to take the No. 1 title that now belongs to Sinner. The duel between the two best tennis players in the world è has just begun and could last several years.
