One of the final weeks of the 2024 season comes to an end, bringing with it a new update of the ATP rankings. Jack Draper's victory in ATP Vienna has propelled the Brit into the Top 15, breaking his previous ranking record. Similarly, Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard has made a statement by dominating with his serve against all his opponents in the ATP Basel, elevating the Frenchman to the 31st position in the ranking. This solidifies his remarkable progression during his first year as a regular in the top ATP tournaments.
On the downside, the absence of Jannik Sinner and Daniil Medvedev from the tournaments has resulted in a significant loss of points for them, as they were respectively defending the title and the final at ATP Vienna. Nevertheless, this points decrease does not pose a threat for either player for the remainder of the year.

A new giant aims to establish a regular presence in the ATP circuit, and that is Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard. The Frenchman surpassed Holger Rune in the semifinal of the ATP Basel thanks to his powerful serving game (7-6 6-4). The Dane only gave two break opportunities throughout the match, but Perricard managed to seize one of them and did not give Rune any chances on his own service games.
Mpetschi Perricard will seek his fifth title of the year (second in the ATP top categories) against Ben Shelton, another big server. They will face off tomorrow, Sunday, October 27th, starting at 3:30 PM (Spanish peninsular time).
As for Holger Rune, he will arrive at the ATP Rolex Paris Masters without any titles for the entire season, and based on his current form, it seems unlikely that he will repeat the feat achieved two years ago when he won the trophy at that venue.

The Frenchman will be the only non-seeded player among the top four in the Swiss tournament.

Spanish defeated Mpetschi-Perricard in straight sets in Beijing, a valiant opponent but powerless against the consistency of the world number 2.
Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard will be the first opponent for Carlos Alcaraz at ATP Beijing 2024. The French player, currently ranked 51st in the world, is the same age as his first opponent in the Asian tournament. This year, he won the only title of his career so far in Lyon, his hometown, and his highest ranking has been number 44. He is a tennis player over 2 meters tall whose court movement surprises, as was the case a few months ago at Wimbledon against Sebastian Korda, where he secured his first victory in a Grand Slam main draw. He comes from playing in Chengdu, where he only managed one win.
