Jannik Sinner remains the leader in the ATP Race to Turin, while Casper Ruud and Stefanos Tsitsipas rise after the ATP 500 Barcelona Open. Novak Djokovic, on the other hand, continues to be outside the qualification spots for the ATP Finals and is in 9th place.
The young Italian didn't compete in any events last week but comfortably maintains the top spot in the rankings with 4310 points, thanks to his three titles this year at the Australian Open, Rotterdam Open, and Miami Open, as well as semifinal appearances in Indian Wells and Monte-Carlo Masters.
Sinner leads with a considerable distance ahead of his nearest rival Daniil Medvedev in second place. The Russian hasn't secured titles yet but has been consistently strong with finals appearances at the Aussie Open and Indian Wells, as well as semifinals in Dubai and the Miami Open, despite his early exit in the Monte-Carlo round of 16. The former world No. 1 was not in competition during the past week.
Those who have regained ground and have positioned themselves well are the finalists of the Monte-Carlo and Barcelona Open: Casper Ruud and Stefanos Tsitsipas. The Norwegian secured his first ATP 500 title on Sunday and rose to the third position in the Race, while the runner-up Tsitsipas is in 5th place.

 Tsitsipas and Ruud are the players who have accumulated the most points since the start of the clay swing.
Others maintaining high positions include Alexander Zverev (4th), Alex De Minaur (6th), Carlos Alcaraz (7th), and Grigor Dimitrov (8th). The 24-times Grand Slam champion and world No. 1 Novak Djokovic is only in 9th place, considering he has only played in three events this year. His recent confirmation of absence from the Madrid Open suggests he may continue to drop positions in the ATP Race.
