Sinner mette la freccia da Roma a Parigi

Jannik Sinner’s defeat in the Monte Carlo semifinal against Stefanos Tsitsipas does not hinder the Alto Adige native’s pursuit of Novak Djokovic’s top spot in the world.

Taking into account the points to be dropped in the coming weeks, at the conclusion of the Italian Open the Serbian will have 9,810 points, while Sinner will have 8,570 points, plus of course those they will earn in Madrid and Rome (Alcaraz, on the other hand, will have a minimum of 7,100 points).

A gap of 1,240 points between Djokovic and Sinner that Sinner won’t be able to close if he decides to skip Madrid. With two finals in Madrid and Rome, Sinner could even become number 1 at the end of the Internationals provided that Djokovic loses in both tournaments at the start.
It is much more likely that the race for the leadership will come down to the results of Djokovic and Sinner at Roland Garros.
In the race, Sinner consolidates his top position . Medvedev remains second with 2,650 points and Ruud could rise to third place by winning Monte Carlo with 2,125 points. Considering that the race is a faithful projection of what the year-end ranking will be, Jannik can definitely rest easy.
