The absence of Carlos Alcaraz in the Mutua Madrid Open 2026 significantly impacts the battle for the world number 1 between the Spanish player and Jannik Sinner. So much so, that the Italian already has a clear view of what he needs to secure the top position at Roland Garros 2026 on the ATP ranking. By earning 260 points between the Madrid and Rome tournaments, he would be enough to ensure that status at the start of the second Grand Slam of the year, considering that he defends 660 points as a finalist at the Foro Italico.

Therefore, reaching the semifinals at the Caja Mágica would put him in a position to arrive in Paris as the world number 1, regardless of what happens in Rome. If he does not play in Madrid, the calculations would remain the same at the Italian tournament, as long as he reaches the semifinals. Making it to the quarterfinals in one of the two tournaments and to the round of 16 in the other would also secure him the number 1 spot.
