Had he won the title at the clay-court ATP 500 event, Alcaraz would have swapped places with Sinner once more.<\/p>\n<p>But the Spaniard withdrew Wednesday due to injury following a first-round win Tuesday. Having reached the Barcelona final a year ago (when he lost to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/players\/holger-rune\/r0dg\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Holger Rune<\/a>), Alcaraz was defending 330 PIF ATP Rankings points this week. <\/p>\n<p>Sinner, who is not competing this week, currently leads Alcaraz by 390 points in the PIF ATP Live Rankings. The Italian will begin his 68th week as World No. 1 when the rankings are released on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>The next tournament on the calendar is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/tournaments\/madrid\/1536\/overview\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mutua Madrid Open<\/a>, the second clay-court ATP Masters 1000 event of the season. Neither Sinner nor Alcaraz has any points to defend at the Caja Magica, where main draw action begins next Wednesday. <\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/news\/atp-number-one-club\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/atp-no-1-club-banner-article.jpg\" alt=\"\u201cATP\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PIF ATP Live Rankings Projection Sinner guaranteed to remain World No. 1 next week Alcaraz this week had&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":607492,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[442],"tags":[49,48,82,593],"class_list":{"0":"post-607491","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-tennis"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/607491","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=607491"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/607491\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/607492"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=607491"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=607491"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=607491"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
