Alexander Zverev has reached the top of the men’s tennis rankings for the first time, following a season in which he won his first two Grand Slam singles titles.
A ranking snapshot published by Tennis.esp.br puts the German on 9,550 points on 2 November, 100 ahead of Jannik Sinner. Carlos Alcaraz is third with 6,100 points.
Zverev secured his rise by beating Tallon Griekspoor 6-4, 7-5 in the second round of the Vienna Open last week, according to the tournament.
