For Jannik Sinner, who just days ago claimed it was <em>&ldquo;impossible&rdquo;<\/em> to return to world No. 1 this season, the door has now swung wide open. With Alcaraz&rsquo;s 17-match Masters 1000 winning streak snapped in Paris, Sinner&rsquo;s path back to the summit is now in his own hands. So, win the title at La Defense Arena, and the Italian will reclaim the world No. 1 ranking on Monday.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Rating Jannik Sinner&rsquo;s 2025 season thus far &#127344;&#65039;<br><br>Will he regain World No. 1? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Cg8aa0eu9B\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/Cg8aa0eu9B<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Tennis Channel (@TennisChannel) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TennisChannel\/status\/1983306663596544021?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>October 28, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sinner&rsquo;s Battle for Year-End No. 1 Just Got Reignited<\/h2><p>Sinner&rsquo;s first 65-week reign as the world&rsquo;s top-ranked player ended after the US Open, where Alcaraz defeated him in a thrilling final to capture his second major of the year. But the Italian now stands just 740 points behind in the ATP Live Rankings, holding 10,510 to Alcaraz&rsquo;s 11,250. Crucially, Sinner is not defending any points in Paris this week, while a title would add 1,000 fresh ones to his total, pushing him to 11,500 and back to the top.<\/p><p>However, his hold would be brief. Even if Sinner lifts the Paris trophy for the first time, he would only keep the No. 1 spot for a week before returning it to Alcaraz ahead of the ATP Finals in Turin. This is because the Italian is the defending champion, and so he must defend the 1,500 points earned from last year&rsquo;s home triumph. Alcaraz, on the other hand, only has 200 points to defend in Turin, giving him a mathematical advantage to close out the year.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#127937; Road to Year-End No.1 &ndash; The Scenario &#129418;<br><br>With Alcaraz out in Paris, the door is open &#128064;<br>If Jannik Sinner wins both Paris &amp; the ATP Finals in Turin,<br>and Alcaraz wins fewer than 3 matches in Turin,<br>&#10145;&#65039; Sinner will finish the year as World No.1 &#127757;&#128293;<br><br>What an ending that would be&hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oNUbDInwMk\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/oNUbDInwMk<\/a><\/p>&mdash; The Sinner Times (@sinnertimes) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/sinnertimes\/status\/1983271705167732960?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>October 28, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Still, Alcaraz&rsquo;s unexpected Paris exit has made the ATP Year-End No. 1 race more dramatic than ever.

I previously wrote for Sportskeeda and hold a B.A. and M.A. in History. My journey into sports media began far from the field, rooted in the arts and sciences. Funny enough, I didn\u2019t grow up a sports fan; I used to see it all as just noise. But a fateful writing job introduced me to the world of sports, and what began as a gig quickly became a passion. I understood those voices aren\\'t noise; they\\'re emotions of true sports fans, and now I am one of them, writing with the same energy I once questioned.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/_rudradubey__\/","https:\/\/x.com\/Rudradubey1997"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/rudra\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639560"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/40"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=639560"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639560\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":639563,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639560\/revisions\/639563"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/639561"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=639560"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=639560"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=639560"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
