Tsitsipas conferma il suo tracollo: perde a Dubai e avrà il suo peggiore ranking in sette anni

Carlos Navarro - 24 feb 2026
Stefanos Tsitsipas and a tough defeat that will send him out of the top 40.

Stefanos Tsitsipas leaves ATP Dubai 2026 without achieving a single victory, losing in his debut in what was his title defense from last year... and witnessing how the consequences at ranking level are terrible for him. The Greek was always trailing against a very solid Ugo Humbert, who barely gave ground with his serve and thus built a victory defined in the break points (saving the two he faced, converting two of the three he had in his favor). The score (6-4, 7-5) leaves no room for doubt: the Frenchman was far superior, sending Stefanos out of the top-40. It is his worst ranking in over seven years and ten months: the last time he was not among the top 40 in the world was in May 2018. Will he find the light at the end of the tunnel soon?
