Spain’s young tennis sensation Carlos Alcaraz is currently leading the Men’s Race to the 2024 Summer Olympics.

The mega-event is scheduled to be organized from July 26 to August 11 in the French capital city Paris where thousands of athletes will participate in many different games.

In the men’s singles category in tennis, Alcaraz is currently leading the race with 4,270 points. He is closely followed by the current world number one Serbia’s legendary tennis star Novak Djokovic who is second on the list with 4,200 points.

Italy’s Jannik Sinner is third in the list with 2,635 points whereas Russia’s Danill Medvedev is fourth with 2,625 points.

The list also features the likes of Germany’s Alexander Zverev, Russia’s Andrey Rublev, America’s Taylor Fritz and France’s Adrian Mannarino.

In the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, the gold medal was won by Zverev as he defeated Russia’s Karen Khachanov in the final.

Surprisingly, Djokovic, who is often regarded as the best player in the history of men’s singles tennis in the Open era, having won 24 Grand Slam titles, came fourth in the list.

Alcaraz will be hoping to once again live up to the expectations as he did earlier this year whe he won Wimbledon 2023 following a memorable win over Djokovic in a five-set thrilling final with a score of 1–6, 7–6(8–6), 6–1, 3–6, 6–4.
