No. 3 Jannik Sinner, +1 (Career High)
Sinner extended his winning streak to 15 tour-level matches to claim the crown at the ABN AMRO Open in Rotterdam. The 22-year-old’s championship-match victory against De Minaur has lifted him above Daniil Medvedev and into the Top 3 for the first time. He is the highest-ranked Italian player in the history of the Pepperstone ATP Rankings.
No. 9 Alex de Minaur, +2 (Career High)
Despite his final defeat, De Minaur continued his impressive early-season form with his personal-best run in Rotterdam. The Australian notched his fourth Top 10 win of the year against Andrey Rublev in the quarter-finals and also downed the in-form Grigor Dimitrov at the indoor ATP 500. De Minaur’s efforts have lifted him two spots to a career-high No. 9.
No. 45 Alexander Shevchenko, +12 (Career High)
Another dynamic baseliner who made waves in Rotterdam was Alexander Shevchenko.

Shevchenko has returned to the Top 50 as a result, rising 12 spots to No. 45.
