Jannik Sinner takes an extra prize to his title at the ATP Masters 1000 Monte Carlo 2026, also climbing to the top of the ATP ranking. The Italian will be the world number 1 starting this Monday, April 13, with 13,400 points, compared to Carlos Alcaraz's 13,240 points. What's most interesting is that the San Candido player will be able to continue adding points in Madrid, where he has nothing to defend.
