With the surprising withdrawal of Jannik Sinner in the ATP Cincinnati final, Carlos Alcaraz not only lifts the title in Ohio but also earns 1000 points, while the Italian loses 550 points, leaving them separated by 1890 points before the start of the US Open. In New York, Sinner can only defend the 2000 champion points, while the Spaniard only defends 50 points. In this context, if the player from Murcia conquers his second US Open, he would add 1950 points and, therefore, return to the number one spot in the world.
Carlos Alcaraz will depend on HIMSELF at the US Open to be number 1 in the ATP Ranking.
