Jannik Sinner is enjoying his 60th week on the ATP throne. The 23-year-old Italian is the 12th player since the beginning of the ATP ranking to achieve that and the 11th with 60 consecutive weeks as world no. 1.
The four-time Major champion is preparing for a couple of demanding weeks in the US, having to defend 3000 ATP points in Cincinnati and the US Open following last year's title.
Jannik's closest rival, Carlos Alcaraz stands 3430 points behind him, with almost nothing to defend at the upcoming notable events. Thus, Sinner has to perform well at both to keep the Spaniard behind.

Jannik became world no. 1 after last year's Roland Garros. He has stayed at the top ever since despite missing four Masters 1000 events in the early stage of 2025 due to his suspension.
However, he managed to keep Alexander Zverev and Carlos Alcaraz behind until his return at the Rome Masters. Sinner has played four tournaments since his comeback, reaching the final in Rome and Paris and lifting the ultimate trophy at Wimbledon.
The Italian fought for the trophy at home at Foro Italico and wasted set points against Carlos Alcaraz in the opening set. The Spaniard sealed the deal in straight sets and kept the home favorite as the runner-up.

They met again in the Roland Garros final and made it memorable! Carlos prevailed 5-7, 6-7, 6-4, 7-6, 7-6 after five hours and 29 minutes, defending three match points and providing Jannik's most heartbreaking loss in a career.
The Italian fell to Alexander Bublik in Halle and parted ways with Marco Panichi and Ulises Badio. That did not affect his game, and we saw Jannik competing at his best at the All England Club.
World no. 1 ousted Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz in the semi-final and final, lifting his first Wimbledon trophy and securing his fourth Major title at the previous seven tournaments.
Sinner skipped Toronto and extended his break for a couple of weeks. He is back on the practice court in Monte Carlo ahead of his next challenges in Cincinnati and New York.
