Carlos Alcaraz begins a new stage in his sports career this Monday, September 8, having reached the number 1 spot in the ATP ranking for the fifth time in his professional trajectory. The phase in which he stayed at the top of the ranking the longest was the first, managing to hold the position for 20 weeks and finishing 2022 as the world's best.
After that, in 2023, he had three more phases, the longest being 11 weeks. Currently, he has held the number 1 position for 36 weeks, which could significantly increase soon as he has a 760-point advantage over Sinner, and the Italian has much more to defend for the remaining season. If he were to end the year in this position and enter the Australian Open as number 1, he would have added another 18 weeks to his record.
