ATP Rankings Update after Monte-Carlo Masters: Carlos Alcaraz back into World No.2, Stefanos Tsitsipas plummets

The ATP Rankings have been updated after the Monte-Carlo Masters with Carlos Alcaraz being the big winner. The champion this past week, he is back up to World No.2.

Alcaraz has been unequivocally clear about not caring about the World No.1 ranking having already been it but after a long period where Zverev took over and even looked like he would become World No.1, the Spaniard has jumped ahead.

Albeit thankfully for Zverev who plays this week in Munich, Taylor Fritz is way behind and won't play again until at least Madrid. The same can be said for Novak Djokovic and Jack Draper. Djokovic's early loss saw his hopes of a top four seeding at Roland Garros dented though.

Alex de Minaur was also a big winner in the top ten with his run to the semi-finals losing to Lorenzo Musetti. He has risen three spots up to World No.7, while Andrey Rublev and Daniil Medvdev also rise. Casper Ruud fell three spots after failing to defend his final.

He also has to defend his Barcelona title this week and has one of the risers of the week potentially taking over despite him not playing due to injury. That being Lorenzo Musetti who limped out of the Monte-Carlo Masters final injured but he is up to World No.11 moving up five spots to a new best.

From going up eight to plummeting eight as Stefanos Tsitsipas has descended down the rankings down to World No.16 after failing to defend his title and again with reaching the Barcelona final last year, Grigor DImitrov could soon overtake him this week.

After great weeks further down, Alexei Popyrin is up to World No.25 up two spots. While Alejandro Davidovich Fokina is one of the big movers shifting up 12 spots to World No.30.
