Top 10 Men’s Tennis Players by UTR Rating
1. Jannik Sinner (UTR Rating 16.42)
Jannik Sinner is one swing away from competing for the calendar-year Grand Slam at the 2025 US Open. Sinner snagged his second major title of the season at Wimbledon, dismissing rival Carlos Alcaraz in four sets to avenge his heart-breaking 2025 Roland Garros final loss.
Sinner, who won the 2025 Australian Open, held three championship points in that instant classic in Paris before falling to the Spaniard in a fifth-set match tie-break.
After losing two finals to Alcaraz earlier in the year, in Rome and Paris, Sinner strides into the U.S. eager to compete on his favorite surface (hard courts) and full of belief against the Spaniard.
Since January 2024, when Sinner won his first major title in Australia, the Italian is 60-3 on hard courts.

2. Carlos Alcaraz (UTR Rating 16.38)
Carlos Alcaraz was denied his third consecutive Wimbledon title by Sinner. But it wasn't a bad European clay-court and grass-court run for the 22-year-old from El Palmar, Murcia, Spain.
Consider Alcaraz's past six events, since Monte-Carlo through Wimbledon: title, final, title, title, title, final. The run of four titles and two finals was highlighted by his fifth major title at Roland Garros.
Now he heads to the U.S. for what has been an up-and-down period of time for him in past years. Last year, drained from a busy summer that included the Paris Olympics, Alcaraz lost in the first round in Cincinnati (Monfils) and the second round at the US Open (Van De Zandschulp).
Alcaraz won his lone US Open title in 2022 (d. Ruud) and is still missing Cincy hardware, having lost to Djokovic in the 2023 final.

3. Novak Djokovic (UTR Rating 16.32)
Wimbledon, Novak Djokovic's self-described "best chance" to win his 25th major title, has come and gone.
"I would probably agree that Wimbledon could be the best chance [for a 25th major title] because of the results I had, because of how I feel, how I play in Wimbledon, just getting that extra push mentally and motivation to, yeah, perform the best tennis at the highest level," he said at Wimbledon.
The 24-time major champion was hampered by a groin injury and lost to Sinner in the semifinals in straight sets. The defeat marked Djokovic's fifth consecutive loss against Sinner in their head-to-head rivalry.
But Djokovic is perhaps the best hard-court player in the history of men's tennis. His 84% win rate on hard courts is tops in the history of the ATP Tour, and only Roger Federer has as many hard-court titles, 71, as Djokovic.
He could make that 72 as he heads to Cincy, where the 38-year-old Djokovic is beloved and a three-time champion. His next stop after Ohio is scheduled to be the 2025 US Open in Flushing Meadows.
Djokovic has reached 10 US Open finals and won four of them. His most recent US Open title, and major championship title overall, came in 2023.
Below is Djokovic's complete record in Grand Slam finals:
| Major Championship | Finals Record |
|---|---|
| Australian Open | 10–0 |
| Roland Garros | 3–4 |
| Wimbledon | 7–2 |
| US Open | 4–6 |
| Total | 24–12 |
4. Jack Draper (UTR Rating 16.13)
Jack Draper blitzed through the Indian Wells draw, beating Next Gen upstart Joao Fonseca, American Jenson Brooksby, former champion Taylor Fritz, 2024 US Open semifinalist Ben Shelton, Carlos Alcaraz, and Holger Rune to win the biggest title of his career.
"Definitely a big moment for me," Draper said. "Getting inside the top 10, and also... to win my first Masters title... just adds to my inner belief and my confidence."
But the 23-year-old Briton has struggled to replicate that Top 5 form since the BNP Paribas Open. The big-hitting southpaw's Madrid final has been his lone title match in the past four months.
The fourth-seeded Draper fell to the resurgent Marin Cilic in the second round at Wimbledon. Last year at the US Open, however, Draper made his Grand Slam breakthrough by reaching the semifinals (l. to eventual champion Sinner).
5. Lorenzo Musetti (UTR Rating 16.05)
Lorenzo Musetti, the second Italian in the Top 5 of this list, made his mark on the European clay, reaching the semifinals or better in Monte-Carlo, Madrid, Rome, and at Roland Garros.
Since then, Musetti has gone 1-2, including a brief stop at SW19. Look for the Italian with the one-handed backhand to rebound throughout the hard courts of North America.

6. Jiri Lehecka (UTR Rating 15.85)
Previously No. 9 on this list, Lehecka jumped three spots after a fine run of play on grass. The 23-year-old Czech reached the quarterfinals in Stuttgart (l. to Shelton) and the final at The Queen's Club (l. to Alcaraz).
7. Alex de Minaur (UTR Rating 16.01)
Alex de Minaur might be on the top of the list of least-favorite opponents for players in the men's game. De Minaur's game isn't particularly massive but his effort and desire to win is never outdone.
The 26-year-old Aussie showed that fight-for-every-point mentality recently in the Washington, D.C. final, when he saved three championship points against Spain's Alejandro Davidovich Fokina to win his first ATP 500 title.

8. Taylor Fritz (UTR Rating 16.01)
Taylor Fritz is back into Top 5 form, just in time for his favorite part of the season back on home soil. Fritz won two titles on grass (Stuttgart and Eastbourne) and reached the Wimbledon semifinals. He'll look to return to the US Open final in New York in the coming weeks.
9. Alexander Zverev (UTR Rating 15.96)
Alexander Zverev still sits at No. 3 in the ATP Rankings but has been navigating a dry stretch of late. He fell in the first round at Wimbledon and opened up about his mental health struggles of late.
10. Casper Ruud (UTR Rating 15.91)
Ruud is still searching for his maiden Grand Slam. The three-time major finalist claimed the Madrid title but lost in the second round of Roland Garros and had to withdraw from Wimbledon because of a knee injury.
