Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner most recently met in the final of the US Open, where Alcaraz triumphed.
\n By ATP Staff<\/p>\n
Jannik Sinner<\/a> has an opportunity to reclaim World No. 1 from Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> this week at the Rolex Paris Masters<\/a>.<\/p>\n Alcaraz took the spot from his rival after winning the US Open<\/a> and has held it since. The Italian can return the favour at the final ATP Masters 1000 event of the season… at least for now.<\/p>\n Sinner must win the title to have a chance of returning to World No. 1 next Monday. If the 24-year-old lifts the trophy and Alcaraz does not reach the semi-finals, No. 1 will change hands.<\/p>\n PIF ATP Live Rankings (entering Paris)<\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0Paris Result \u00a0R32 \u00a0R16 \u00a0QF \u00a0SF \u00a0Finalist \u00a0Champion If Sinner does not claim his first Masters 1000 title of the season, he does not have a chance of returning to No. 1. Alcaraz can guarantee he will retain No. 1 by advancing to the semi-finals.<\/p>\n No matter what happens this week, Alcaraz remains in firm control of the battle for ATP Year-End No. 1 presented by PIF honours. The Spaniard currently leads the PIF ATP Live Race To Turin, a barometer for the year-end No. 1 battle, by 2,040 points.<\/p>\n Sinner, whose opening opponent in France will be Zizou Bergs<\/a>, must move to within 1,750 points by the end of the Rolex Paris Masters<\/a> to have any chance of claiming a second year-end No. 1 finish. There are ATP 250 events in Athens and Metz, which Alcaraz and Sinner have not entered, and then the Nitto ATP Finals<\/a>, where an undefeated champion would earn 1,500 points.<\/p>\n
