Sinner almost certain to end the year as n. 1
However, the South Tyrolean will not have any particular pressure given that his number 1 in the world ranking is firmly safe having a very wide margin over his immediate pursuers (11180 points against Zverev’s 6875 and Alcaraz’s 6690, ndr). Although Sinner has 2180 points to expire between now and the end of the year compared to Zverev’s 1010 and Alcaraz’s 680, it is very likely that he will achieve the arithmetic certainty of closing 2024 on the world throne by October where he will be seen on stage in the Masters 1000 of Shanghaiin the ATP 500 of Vienna and, finally, in the last Masters 1000 of the season, a Parigi-Bercy.

Then, after trying to defend the 2023 title in Austria (21-27 October), he will try to improve what he did 12 months ago in Paris (28 October-3 November) where he had to withdraw due to tiredness on the eve of the round of 16 match with De Minaur.
