ATP rankings update: Tsitsipas back in top 10, Machac hits career-high

The latest ATP rankings have seen a reshuffle to the world’s top 10, with Stefanos Tsitsipas returning for the first time since May 2024. Tommy Paul drops out of sport’s upper echelon after cracking it for the first time last month.

Here’s how the ATP top 10 looks this Monday:

1. Jannik Sinner – 11,330 points
2. Alexander Zverev – 8,135 points
3. Carlos Alcaraz – 7,510 points
4. Taylor Fritz – 4,900 points
5. Casper Ruud – 4,045 points
6. Daniil Medvedev – 3,930 points
7. Novak Djokovic – 3,900 points
8. Andrey Rublev – 3,480 points
9. Stefanos Tsitsipas – 3,405 points
10. Alex de Minaur – 3,335 points

Another early loss by Alexander Zverev sees the German’s chances of overtaking Jannik Sinner at No 1 reduce even further. The gap between the two sits at 3,165 points with Sinner returning to action in just over two months’ time.

Further down the top-10, Rublev moves up one place despite an early loss in Dubai, while Tsitsipas comes in at No 9 courtesy of his ATP 500 title. Alex de Minaur slips to No 10 having also lost early in the Middle East.

Machac breaks into top 20, young players surge

Other big movements in the ATP rankings include Tomas Machac making a career-high and cracking the world’s top 20. The Czech’s leap comes off the back of his maiden title in Acapulco. 

Felix Auger-Aliassime also returns to the world’s top 20 for the first time since October 2024 thanks to his run to the final in Dubai.

There were a few strange career highs due to quirks of the rankings system – Ben Shelton improved to world No 12, despite losing in the Acapulco round of 16, while Alex Michelsen moved up two places to No 32 in the world after exiting at the same stage. Both rankings are career highs for the two Americans.

Two other young Americans – Brandon Nakashima and Learner Tien – hit career highs this Monday, moving to No 33 and No 68 in the world.

Laslo Djere was the biggest mover of the week, however, jumping 29 places to re-enter the world’s top 100 at No 74 in the world.
