Who is the tennis player who has spent the most hours on the court during 2025?

Tennis is one of the few sports where a player, upon entering the court, does not know when they will leave it. Anything can happen in there, especially in a five-set Grand Slams match. Throughout the season, tennis players spend hours and hours on the court, playing official matches and not to mention the training sessions. By now, it is well-known which tennis player spent the most time on the courts in 2025.

Surprisingly, the ranking is not led by Carlos Alcaraz or Jannik Sinner. The absolute dominators of the circuit are not at the top of the leaderboard, which is headed by a tennis player who had a forgettable year: Alexander Zverev.

Alexander Zverev is the player who spent the most hours on a tennis court in 2025, followed by Carlos Alcaraz and Félix Auger-Aliassime

The German player concluded 2025 with just one title, the ATP Munich, and suffered painful defeats throughout the season. No Masters 1000 final, although he reached the final round in the Australian Open. However, he was eliminated in the quarterfinals at Roland Garros, the first round at Wimbledon, and the third round at the US Open.

Despite these inconsistent results, the player from Hamburg has become the one with the most matches played in 2025, totaling 82 matches, more than anyone else, resulting in a total of 164 hours on the court, an exact average of two hours per match.

Following closely is the biggest winner of the year, the world number one, Carlos Alcaraz. The Spaniard played a total of 80 matches, the most in his career, spending 159 hours playing tennis, an average of one hour and 59 minutes. Not bad, considering the eight titles he won this year: Rotterdam, Monte Carlo, Rome, Roland Garros, Queen’s, Cincinnati, US Open, and Tokyo.

The podium is completed by a player who improved over time and became one to watch in the final stretch of the season: Félix Auger-Aliassime. The Canadian had a forgettable start to the year, but something changed in Cincinnati. From there, the best Auger-Aliassime started to show up, accumulating 158 hours on the court after playing 74 matches. In fact, he surpasses Zverev and Alcaraz in average hours, with two hours and eight minutes.

As expected, due to a doping sanction that kept him off the courts for three months, Jannik Sinner appears lower in the ranking, specifically in the tenth position with a total of 125 hours, 64 matches played, and an average of one hour and 57 minutes on the court.

Another player that is not surprising to see so far down is Novak Djokovic. The Serbian stated last year that his priority is the Grand Slams, and apart from these four tournaments, he only competed in Indian Wells (2nd round), Miami, where he reached the final, Monte Carlo (2nd round), Madrid (2nd round), Geneva (title holder), Shanghai (semifinals), and Athens, where he also lifted the trophy. His total hours on the court were 109 after playing 50 matches and spending an average of two hours and eleven minutes in them, making him the 16th player with the most hours on the court.

Other players who stand out in the ranking are Alejandro Davidovich, in seventh place, after playing 70 matches, 135 hours, and an average of one hour and 56 minutes; Cameron Norrie, in eighth position, with 128 hours, 50 matches, and an average of two hours and eight minutes; and finally Nuno Borges, who, after playing 61 matches, accumulated 125 hours, with an average of two hours and three minutes on the court.
