Jannik Sinner will be at the top of the ATP ranking for many weeks thanks to his incredible streak on the clay court tour and Carlos Alcaraz's injury. Right now, the difference between the Italian and the Spanish player is 2,790 points, but this will increase at the end of Roland Garros, as the Murcian won't be able to defend the 2,000 champion points. However, this week, Sinner from San Candido appears with 50 more points even though he won't be playing in Hamburg.
This is because last year he withdrew from the German tournament at the last minute, resulting in a 0-point penalty. However, after a year, that penalty expires, and he gains an additional 50 points from last year's Halle tournament. Although he will lose these 50 points in a few weeks since he won't participate in Halle and will go straight to Wimbledon.
