The injury to Carlos Alcaraz’s right wrist allows you to observe the two existing speeds in the men’s circuit. On one hand there are Jannik Sinner and Alcaraz and, on the other, the rest of the humans of the racket. The Murcian misses the next one Masters 1000 in Rome and Roland Garros and he might not play in Queen’s and Wimbledon either depending on the evolution of his condition..
If that is fulfilled, would subtract a total of 4,800 points by not defending the crowns in the land of the Foro Italico and Paris and those won on the grass of the two most flirtatious events in London.
Despite the bleeding of points that would be left along the way, Alexander Zverev, who closes the ATP podium, could only pass him in the ranking if he makes the final at the Mutua Madrid Open and subsequently wins in Rome, Roland Garros and Wimbledon.
Carlitos’ current income over Sascha, quarterfinalist in the Caja Mágica, is 7,605 points. That margin is greater than the one the Hamburg tennis player has with the 1,000th in the world, which is the Korean Suk Hyun Choo.
The difference between the two is 5,338 points. It should be remembered that Alcaraz and Sinner have shared the last nine Grand Slam titles and the last 20 tournaments in which both have coincided in the draw.
Jódar’s jump
Rafa Jodarwhich started this season in 168th place, has climbed 134 positions in just four months. A single loss in Rome, before the draw for the draw, will place him among the 32 seeds.
And a match won in the Italian capital would practically ensure him the status of favorite at Roland Garros That would avoid being able to run into another member of the top32 in the first two rounds. The Madrid native, 18th in the Race, is in the race for the ATP Finals.
