The mother of all battles is looming this Sunday at the ATP Masters 1000 Montecarlo 2026, with the world's best facing off for two very important objectives. The foremost, undoubtedly, is the title. But as an extra incentive, whoever emerges as the champion will claim the number 1 spot in the ATP ranking on Monday, April 13.

Currently, Carlos Alcaraz would have 13,240 points and will retain that total if he loses, watching as Jannik Sinner surpasses him with 13,400 points. If the Spaniard emerges victorious, he would leave Monaco with 13,590 points, creating a 540-point lead over the Italian. This would secure Carlos the number 1 spot for the following week as he could only lose a maximum of 330 points in Barcelona. Thus, he would arrive in Madrid as the best tennis player on the planet.
