The first week of the 2025 French Open has brought some intriguing stories on the men’s side, but how are the ATP Rankings set to be affected?
While seven of the world’s top 10 have advanced to the fourth round, 20 of the 32 seeds have already fallen.
ATP Top 20 at start of Australian Open
1. Jannik Sinner, Italy – 10,380
2. Carlos Alcaraz, Spain – 8,850
3. Alexander Zverev, Germany – 7,285
4. Taylor Fritz, United States – 4,675
5. Jack Draper, Great Britain – 4,610
6. Novak Djokovic, Serbia – 4,230
7. Lorenzo Musetti, Italy – 3,860

9. Alex de Minaur, Australia – 3,635
10. Holger Rune, Denmark – 3,440
11. Daniil Medvedev – 3,290
12. Tommy Paul, United States – 3,210

20. Stefanos Tsitsipas, Greece – 2,270
Jannik Sinner has maintained his firm grip on the world No 1 ranking with his dominant progress to the last 16.
The Italian, who is defending semi-final points from last year, has stretched his lead over second-ranked Carlos Alcaraz in the Live ATP Rankings.
Alcaraz — defending the maximum 2,000 points as the reigning Roland Garros champion — remains on course for another deep run in Paris.
If Alexander Zverev were to secure his maiden major, he could take the world No 2 position from Alcaraz — if the Spaniard failed to reach the final.
Jack Draper is up one place to a projected new career-high ranking of world No 4 after reaching the fourth round of French Open for the first time. The Brit will leapfrog Taylor Fritz, who fell in the opening round.
Novak Djokovic and Lorenzo Musetti remain sixth and seventh respectively, but both have a chance to finish the tournament ranked as high as fourth with very deep runs — depending on Draper’s progress.
Holger Rune and Tommy Paul are up to eighth and ninth respectively and they are in contention to move further up the rankings.
Reaching the second round has been enough to lift Jakub Mensik to a projected new career-high position of 17th, while Ugo Humbert has re-entered the top 20.
