The

8217;ATP ranking update, which sees Jannik Sinner still leading for the 60th consecutive week, confirmed the calculations made in the last few days: Matteo Berrettini has in fact dropped out of the Top 50 and his name appears since Monday next to the box number 57 in the men’s world rankings, with 975 points, 30 less than Fabian Maroszan and 2 more against Daniel Altmaier.

For the Roman tennis player also a sad record: among the top 100 in the ranking he is the one who has lost the most positions compared to the previous week, as many as 15. Taking into account the top 150 positions, only Shang Jungcheng (-22, from number 87 to 109), Hugo Gaston (-27, from number 99 to 126) and Yoshihito Nishioka (-42, from number 89 to 131) have done worse.

After a 2024 in which he had shown he was back to his level, winning three tournaments (Marrakech, Gstaad, and Kitzbühel) and giving Italy an important hand in the encore in the Coppa Davis, Matteo Berrettini returned victim to physical problems that in 2025 hardly left him alone.

In 2025, in fact, Berrettini did not go beyond the second round at Grand Slam level (in Australia, while in Wimbledon he was eliminated in the first round and at Roland Garros he did not play), while in Masters 1000 he stopped four times in the third round (Indian Wells, Monte Carlo, Madrid and Rome), reaching the quarters only in Miami, in fact the best result of a season so far to forget.
