US Open: The chaos in the world rankings, the data on the No. 1 and the new champion
The US Open will quickly change the world top 10 as Medvedev waits to see who will succeed him in both the trophy and No. 1 rankings.
Even in the years of absolute Big 4 dominance, the US Open has always been the tournament that offered one of the other the best chances of a Grand Slam.
From 2003, when Roger Federer won his first Major, 76 Grand Slams have been held up to this year. Of the 19 Australian Opens, only one went to another tennis player (Marat Shafin 2005), at Roland Garros they won three in as many events (2004 Gaston Gaudio, 2015 Stan Wawrinka, 2020 Dominic Thiem), in 19 Wimbledon no one else is managed to get a title.
At the same time, five have ended up in different hands in 19 events at the US Open. It started with Andy Roddick in 2003 and was followed by Juan Martin Del Potro (2009), Marin Cilic (2014), Stan Wawrinka (2016) and last year Daniil Medvedev (2021), while again this year we have a new winner will.
Lots of reshuffles in the top ten
According to the results so far, the top ten in the world rankings can change significantly, both in terms of personnel and position.
The data for #1, which will change hands, is analyzed below. From there, whatever happens from now on, Carlos Alcarath will find himself higher than ever, with the worst position he can currently hold, which is third.
The same applies to Casper Rude, who finishes sixth for him in the worst case. At the same time, Shiner, Berettini and Kyrgios claim their return to the top 10.
Unlike Novak Djokovic, who will wait and see how the others fare, Stefanos Tsitsipas is not in danger of finishing in the top 10.
The data for #1
Now let’s look at the dates that apply to the world No. 1. If the US Open ended now, Rafael Nadal would be at the top.
However, there are two tennis players who threaten the legendary Spaniard, namely Carlos Alcarat and Casper Rude. What do the two need to make it to the top? Exactly the same. To reach the final.
From then on, when both reach the end of the journey, the prize, of course, is the winner’s first career Grand Slam title and world No. 1 ranking.
Eight tennis players compete for their first Grand Slam
Of course, each of the eight players who go on to win the title will be the first Grand Slam of their career.
After Cilic’s disqualification, Kyrgios, Katsanov, Berettini, Rudd, Shiner, Alkarath, Rublev, and Tiafoe have a golden opportunity ahead of them and it remains to be seen who will take advantage of it.
All matches will be broadcast by Eurosport. The detailed TV program can be found in the special section of Sportish, while all games are broadcast in the match center.
