Carlos Alcaraz He continued training thinking about next week, the Davis Cup group stage in Valencia. He returned from New York earlier than expected, falling prey to the Dutchman’s second round Botic Van from Zandschulp. Even his worst enemy is his pampering, his lack of physical energy, the mental saturation of winning Roland Garros and Wimbledon titles and the silver medal at the Olympic Games.
The season has already achieved great results with these results, but one of the main goals established as the results are accumulated is at stake: world No. 1. I would like to have it back as soon as possible, especially to have it at the end of the season, when the ATP Finals ended in Turin.
Stumbling in New York coincided with the best results of Jannik Sinner at the US Open. He passed the quarterfinals of 2022, he will strengthen the world number one by adding more points. His difference from the rest will grow, the number 2, which will be occupied by the German Alexander Zverev and number 3, which will continue to be covered Carlos Alcaraz.
Espanyol will watch Sinner’s performance this Friday in the semifinals, as well as the finals on Sunday. The Italian is favourite, and if he adds 2,000 points he could almost be declared number one for the year, although with two ATP Masters 1000s and the ATP Finals to go, more than 3,000 points are in contention.
The sinner is guaranteed 9,980 points, which will be 10,480 if he reaches the final and 11,180 if he is champion. Carlos Alcaraz It has 6,690, which would be 3,290 points at best for its interests, 4,490 at worst. In the middle, Zverev with 7,075.
By the end of the course, Sinner would defend 2,180 points, compared to Alcaraz’s 670. The classification Racing in Turin indicates that the Italian has already accumulated 7,800 points, 1,790 more than Alcaraz’s 6,1010. And he can increase that gap by 1,200 more if he wins the US Open.
The sinner may therefore be sentenced to number 1 of the year. The British Jack Draperhis opponent in the semifinals, will definitely debut in the top-20 from the 25th place. His limit, becoming the champion, would be 13th place.
Taylor Fritz (no. 12) caresses about returning to the top-10, which will become a reality by going to the final, at the expense of a Frances Tiafoe which rose from 20th to 16th position, with the option of moving up to 13th or 9th.
