Jannik Sinner’s first Grand Slam title as number 1, Taylor Fritz back as American number 1, Christopher Eubanks -20

Jannik Sinner’s first Grand Slam title as number 1, Taylor Fritz back as American number 1, Christopher Eubanks -20

The top 10 of the ATP rankings remain unchanged ahead of Wimbledon, with Jannik Sinner starting his first Grand Slam at the top, but there has been a lot of movement further down the rankings.

After rising to No. 1 at the French Open, Sinner was always sure to start Wimbledon at No. 1 in the rankings and his title win at the Halle Open two weeks ago means he will stay there after the tournament, regardless of his performance at the grass-court Grand Slam.

The Italian is followed by Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev and Daniil Medvedev and the four will fight for second place at the All England Club.

Andrey Rublev, Hubert Hurkacz, Casper Ruud, Alex de Minaur and Grigor Dimitrov complete the top 10, while just below Taylor Fritz moved up one place to 12th after winning his third title in Eastbourne.

Fritz will start Wimbledon again as the American No. 1, as Tommy Paul has dropped one place and Ben Shelton is ranked 14th.

There is a new addition to the top 20: Alejandro Tabilo rose five places to 19th place, the highest ranking of his career so far, after becoming the first Chilean player to win a title on grass at the Mallorca Championships.

He is one of two Chileans in the top 20, with Nicolas Jarry in 20th place.

Outside the top 20, British No. 1 Jack Draper starts his home Grand Slam at a career-high 28th after moving up one place, while Gael Monfils moves up seven places to 33rd.

One of the big winners was Australian Max Purcell, who improved by 26 places to 68th place after finishing second behind Fritz.

Outside the top 100, Briton Billy Harris jumped 23 places and is now ranked 116th, a career-best, after his run to the semi-finals in Eastbourne. Harris was outside the top 200 at the start of May and was ranked 348th at the same time last year.

American Christopher Eubanks was the big loser, dropping 20 places to No. 62 after failing to defend his Mallorca title. The bad news for Eubanks is that he has 360 points to defend at Wimbledon after reaching the quarterfinals last year.
