Sinner leaves Alcaraz far behind in ATP rankings

(Dan Tri) - The victory in the 2025 Wimbledon final on the evening of July 13 helped Jannik Sinner create a large gap with Carlos Alcaraz on the rankings of the International Tennis Association (ATP).

More than a month after losing in 5 sets in the 2025 Roland Garros final, Jannik Sinner had a spectacular revenge against Carlos Alcaraz in the 2025 Wimbledon final. After more than 3 hours of competition, the Italian player won 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 to win Wimbledon for the first time.

This is Sinner's 4th Grand Slam, besides 2 Australian Opens and 1 US Open. He also ended a 5-match losing streak against the Spaniard. Carlos Alcaraz missed the chance to win his 6th Grand Slam, after he already had 2 Roland Garros, 2 Wimbledon and 1 US Open.

Sinner's 2025 Wimbledon title has created a turning point in the ATP rankings. The Italian player made a spectacular breakthrough, continuing to lead with 12,030 points (he was awarded 1,600 points), officially surpassing Carlos Alcaraz (8,600 points, minus 700 points).

Taylor Fritz got 400 extra points for reaching the 2025 Wimbledon semi-finals and finishing 4th. Ben Shelton got 200 extra points and moved up to 9th place. Andrey Rublev got 190 extra points and moved up 4 places, returning to the world top 10.

Novak Djokovic was docked 500 points for his semi-final exit and remains in sixth place with 4,130 points. Lorenzo Musetti remains in seventh place with 3,350 points, but is closely trailed by Holger Rune (3,340) and Ben Shelton (3,330).

Young players like Flavio Cobolli (+350 points, up to 19th place), Karen Khachanov (+350 points, up to 17th place) also made certain progress.

The upcoming ATP rankings promise to have many changes, when players participate in ATP Masters 1000 tournaments in Canada and the US. The final Grand Slam of the year, the 2025 US Open, will take place from August 24 to September 7 in New York (USA).
