Auger-Aliassime rises to 8th in the world

Defeated in the quarter-finals of the Cincinnati tournament last week, Félix Auger-Aliassime rose to eighth place in the ATP rankings, a career high for him.

The 22-year-old Quebecer will therefore approach the United States Open starting next week as one of the headliners.

The Croatian Borna Coric makes the best operation of the week following his victory in Cincinnati, an increase of 123 positions to settle in 29th place in the standings.

The only change in the world top 5 benefits the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas, finalist against Coric, who dislodges Casper Ruud from 5th position. The Norwegian for his part slips to 7th place, behind Novak Djokovic.

Daniil Medvedev remains at the top of the hierarchy ahead of Alexander Zverev, Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz.

In the women’s ranking, the French Caroline Garcia returns to the top 20 (17th) thanks to her victory in Cincinnati.

Besides Aryna Sabalenka (6th) and Simona Halep (7th), who swap places, no change is to be reported among the top 10, still dominated by Iga Swiatek.

Laval’s Leylah Fernandez remains in 14th place and Ontario’s Bianca Andreescu gains a place, to 50th position.
