The curtain came down on the French Open with Carlos Alcaraz claiming victory over the world number one, Jannik Sinner.

Alcaraz saved three Championship points to win a match that went all the way to five sets and lasted over five hours on Court Philippe-Chatrier.

Next up for the players on the ATP are Masters 500 events at Queen’s and Halle, followed closely by the third Grand Slam of the year at Wimbledon.

Following the Roland Garros extravaganza, the new ATP rankings have been released, and when it comes to the top 10, Novak Djokovic and Taylor Fritz have been given new places on the roster.

Novak Djokovic and Taylor Fritz discover new positions in ATP rankings

Djokovic looked a million dollars in reaching the last four at the French Open, but simply came up against the machine that is Sinner.

It proved a bridge too far for him on this occasion, but there were flashes that if he gets a bit of luck with the draws, he might well win another major.

As for Fritz, it was a tournament to forget with the clay-court Grand Slam ending at the first hurdle, as German outsider Daniel Altmaier sent him packing in the shock of the first round.

The 24-time Grand Slam winner Djokovic has moved up a single place on the roster, with Fritz the biggest loser in the top 10 slipping down three places to seventh.

The newly released ATP top 10

It’s quite remarkable that Djokovic is still progressing up the rankings despite being 38-years-old.

That essentially epitomises his status as the greatest to swing a racket, and it would be no surprise to see him enjoy another strong run at Wimbledon.

As for Fritz, he’s not really kicked on after reaching the final of the US Open back in August 2024.

He was beaten in the third round in Melbourne and didn’t make it past the first round in Paris, representing a detrimental blow to his ranking.

His compatriot Tommy Paul is the big winner, however. He’s broken into the top eight for the first time in his career and that should bode well going into Wimbledon.
