"Sinner to become the 19th player in history to finish as ATP number 1 in a season"

It is now official. Jannik Sinner will finish 2024 as the world number 1, enjoying an insurmountable lead over his pursuers for the remainder of the year. The Italian player will become the 19th player to finish a season in that privileged position, joining tennis greats such as Courier, Kuerten, Murray, Nastase, Wilander, Roddick, and Alcaraz, who have had a year end at the top of the rankings. Out of the 29 players who have experienced being number 1, ten of them did not manage to finish a season in that position, including significant names like Medvedev, Becker, Safin, Ferrero, Newcombe, Kafelnikov, Muster, Ríos, Moyà, and Rafter.
