Jannik Sinner has been the big protagonist of the season, having raised two Grand Slam trophies, among many others, to become the number one in the world, a position he will close in the ATP Ranking. The Italian arrives at the 2024 ATP Finals as a local hero, despite also having gone through complicated periods due to his doping case, from which he has been cleared for now. Focused on the competition, Sinner aims to continue collecting points.

"As I said before, there is no more beautiful place to celebrate this trophy. Turin is a truly special place, celebrating it alongside all of you is very special," said the Italian upon receiving the title at the 2024 ATP Finals. "Thanks to my team and the people close to me who understand me for who I am. Without them, I wouldn't be here. The club of number ones is very exclusive, there are only 29 in total. The next step is finishing the year as number one: when I was young, I never thought about that, then, little by little, as you progress, you start to think about it."

Currently, Jannik has an immense lead of over 3,000 points over his closest rival, Alexander Zverev. Depending on what may happen in this final tournament of the season, Sinner could position himself to maintain the number one spot even until the end of the Australian Open, a Grand Slam where the Italian defends the title and those 2,000 points as the winner. Everything is in his hands, and for now, the San Candido native does not yield to the pressure.

An Exciting Achievement

"I just found out that my mother was crying, which is very beautiful. Only they know from my early age and my first steps, when I was about 13 years old, how many sacrifices we made as a family," declared Jannik, sharing the emotions of his parents who watched attentively from the stands. Besides being such a special moment for his family, it is also significant for his country, as he is the first Italian to finish the year as number one.

Despite the greatness of the achievement, and the potential feelings of dominance Sinner may have in the near future, it is worth reviewing which tennis players have finished the season in the top spot of the ATP Ranking on more than one occasion, with Novak Djokovic standing out in this statistic:

• Novak Djokovic: 8
• Pete Sampras: 6
• Roger Federer: 5
• Rafael Nadal: 5
• Jimmy Connors: 5
• John McEnroe: 4
• Ivan Lendl: 4
• Bjorn Borg: 2
• Stefan Edberg: 2
• Lleyton Hewitt: 2
