Jannik Sinner leads ATP in yet another category as Italian's dominance reaches new heights
ATP
After successfully defending his title at the 2025 Australian Open, World N0.1 Jannik Sinner has established himself as the best player on the ATP Tour over the past year.
The Italian was unstoppable at the first Grand Slam of the season, sweeping past the competition to face Alexander Zverev in the final. Despite a spirited effort from the German, Sinner proved to be too much for the World No.2, cruising to his second Australian Open title in dominant fashion.
Sinner records incredible statistic over the past 12 months
After announcing his arrival with his maiden Grand Slam title at the 2024 Australian Open, Sinner has been almost impossible to stop. The 23-year old would have a superb 2024 season, winning the US Open and the year-ending ATP Finals titles. Additionally, the Italian reached at least the quarterfinals in every tournament he participated in, accumulating an incredible win-loss record during the season.
Sinner's onslaught on the ATP Tour during the 2024 season was one for the ages. The San Candido native recorded an impressive 92.4% win-rate over the last 52 weeks, during which he went back-to-back at the Australian Open.
Former World No.1 Carlos Alcaraz came in second place with 80.6% over the past 52 weeks, recording notable victories at the French Open, Wimbledon and the China Open.
Serbian superstar Novak Djokovic is right on the Spaniard's heels with an 80.4% win-rate. Although the 24-time Grand Slam champion failed to win a Major title, Djokovic captured the elusive Olympic gold medal at the Paris Games last summer. German superstar Alexander Zverev sits at fourth place with a 77.3% record, whereas American Tommy Paul rounds out the top five with a 72.1% win-rate record over the past year.

- This is just getting beyond ridiculous!! Not to mention unsportsmanlike and unfair to serious up & coming contenders.
mandoist06-02-2025 - No, writer, we were not "stunned". If you knew your business you would have been aware of her statement last weekend re: her knee and retirement. The main take-away here is that Simona went out on her own terms. She surely wanted to play again after WTA & ITIA screwed her out of her final productive seasons. Personally, I believed she was going to make this announcement when I saw the President and his family in their box seats. Good for Simone -- now she can move on to other things as she said she would.mandoist04-02-2025
- It sounds seriously absurd that in Davis Cup, (unlike Grand Slams such as the Aus Open), medical time outs off court with the medical staff are not allowed?? I mean, if this was an Aus Open match, and the same thing happened to Gurin then, he would have been able to go off court for official medical time out and make an informed decision whether to resume the match or retire. How come such conditions do not apply in Davis Cup?? I mean, there with Davis Cup, it is even more like a soccer match or basketball game in that teams are playing. And so as with those, it ought to be the case in tennis that if a player needs serious medical time out, then one of the other team mates ought to substitute and each team needs to have stand-ins or understudies in case substitution is needed which will be rare but as we can see here, this kind of circumstance fits. But even if the teams do not go down the road of subbing other team mates in, in case of a health issue like the one which played out here, at least, as in the Aus Open and other Grand Slams, there ought to be time-outs with the health professionals and at the conclusion of these time-outs, the particular decision that has been reached between them and the player needs to be taken on board by the umpire. PERIOD.
Sueiyin04-02-2025 - "If Novak did this, he would be defaulted for life. WTF." 🤣 WTF sounds like What Tennis Fury?! What Tennis Flurry??! I mean, se-rious-ly, it was actually the unfairness of the silly umpire's decision that is the issue here! Further, how come it was Gurin & his team who got disqualified? If this kind of thing happens in soccer, it would be the other guy getting the yellow or red card! Because after all, it was the Belgian who's foul it was so why then penalize the opponents for something they didn't instigate? Fouls in both basketball and soccer are read as a hinderance that has been caused by the player who INITIALLY instigated the hinderance. In this case, okay, it is tennis, but while the precise rules are different to either soccer or basketball, the same type of recognition as to whoever instigates a hinderance should apply, and in this case, it was the Belgian player.Sueiyin04-02-2025

Another possibility is that, while dealing with legitimate surgeries, withdrawing, and otherwise passing on events, the competition has stepped-up in intensity while she was busy with traveling, photo shoots, and TV commercials.mandoist03-02-2025

Not a word about Yastremska trying to ruin Alexandrova's celebration with her postgame actions?? According to WTA regulations, Yastremska has some punishment coming her way for walking-off court, blowing-off postgame rituals with the winner; including no photos, etc.mandoist03-02-2025
