A dream season brings along numerous memorable statistics. Jannik Sinner is having one of the most impressive runs ever seen in the tennis world, with 55 wins in 60 matches played, a total of 11,180 points in his ATP ranking, and the possibility to further improve his score, which already competes with the best of all time.

Six titles, two of them Grand Slam, five losses, and the quarterfinals as the worst result throughout the year. This summarizes what Jannik Sinner is achieving in 2024, a true number 1 aiming to break records in the ATP ranking. His dominance is absolute in terms of consistency since Carlos Alcaraz has not found the expected regularity, and Alexander Zverev is far from the triumphal records of the Italian. His victory in the US Open 2024 presents him with an outstanding 11,180 points, a figure uncommon in the history of this sport.

- Sinner now holds the fifth-best score of all time in the ATP ranking

Only five other men had previously surpassed the 11,000 points mark. The Italian has managed to surpass the 11,005 points of Pete Sampras in August 1997 and now only has ahead of him the Big 3 and Andy Murray, or if you prefer, the Big 4. This achievement is not only due to his excellent 2024 but also because of his titles in Beijing and Vienna last year, as well as the 1,000 points he earned in the 2023 ATP Finals. These results remain in his tally, so the Italian will need a great performance if he wants to increase his score in the coming weeks and surpass those ahead of him in the ranking. Here are the highest scores in history:

1. Novak Djokovic: 16,950 points
2. Roger Federer: 15,903 points
3. Rafael Nadal: 15,390 points
4. Andy Murray: 12,685 points
5. Jannik Sinner: 11,180 points

- How many more points can Jannik Sinner add to his tally in the remaining of 2024?

Regardless of whether he achieves it or not, what is clear is that Jannik Sinner's season is impressive, and only the problems experienced during the clay and grass court seasons have prevented his dominance from being absolute and reaching even higher scoring levels. An exciting end of the season is approaching for the Italian, who remains determined to work hard to become a better tennis player as he believes he has ample room for improvement.
