Jannik Sinner hits No. 1 and Coco Gauff rises to No. 2 as 2000s-born players take over both Top 2s

For the first time, players born in the 2000s hold No. 1 AND No. 2 on both the ATP and WTA rankings this week.

And there are many more ranking movers a little further down from the Top 2, most notably Jasmine Paolini, who breaks into the WTA Top 10 for the first time, rising from No. 15 to No. 7 after reaching the first Grand Slam final of her career at Roland Garros.

She’s the fifth Italian to reach the Top 10 in WTA rankings history.

 

 

Sinner won his first Grand Slam title at the Australian Open this year and extended his major winning streak to 12 matches in a row before falling to Alcaraz in the semifinals of Roland Garros last Friday.

ITALIANS TO REACH WTA TOP 10 (since 1975):
Francesca Schiavone [career-high No. 4 in 2011]
Sara Errani [career-high No. 5 in 2013]
Flavia Pennetta [career-high No. 6 in 2015]
Roberta Vinci [career-high No. 7 in 2016]
Jasmine Paolini [career-high No. 7 in 2024]

Also: 17-year-old Mirra Andreeva breaks into the WTA Top 30, rising from No. 38 to No. 23 after reaching the first Grand Slam semifinal of her career at Roland Garros; Italy’s Flavio Cobolli makes his ATP Top 50 debut, moving up from No. 53 to No. 50 after reaching the second round in Paris, where he had Holger Rune on the ropes; and Belgium’s Zizou Bergs cracks the ATP Top 100, rising from No. 104 to No. 81 after coming through qualifying and going all the way to the third round, falling to Grigor Dimitrov.

And last but certainly not least, Argentina’s Mariano Navone breaks into the ATP Top 30 for the first time, rising from No. 31 to No. 29 after reaching the second round at Roland Garros, where he made history—he was the first man in the Open Era to be seeded in his first main draw at a major (he was the No. 31 seed).
