(Paris) As the United States Open approaches, the top of the ATP rankings remains unchanged on Monday, with no player in the world’s top 20 having participated in the ATP 250 tournament in Winston-Salem, won on Saturday by Argentinian Sebastian Baez .
The place of world No. 1 remains occupied by the Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz, but is more threatened than ever on the first day of the last Grand Slam tournament of the season.
At Flushing Meadows, No. 2 Novak Djokovic will only need to advance to the second round to ensure his return to the throne, having missed out on the US Open last year for refusing the vaccine against COVID-19.
Beyond the top 20, Sebastian Baez (32nd) gained ten places in the ATP rankings and made the strongest progress in the top 100 thanks to his victory in the final of the Winston-Salem tournament against the Czech Jiri Lehecka (6-4, 6-3).
