ATP Rankings Race To Turin: Auger-Aliassime, de Minaur, Shelton, Bublik climb; Sinner 4th
Felix Auger-Aliassime, Taylor Fritz, Alex de Minaur, Ben Shelton and Alexander Bublik have all made progress in the Race to the ATP Finals in Turin this week.
The eight men who earn the most ranking points in the 2026 season will qualify for the season-ending ATP Finals, which will be staged in Turin from 15 to 22 November.
The prestigious tournament, which was first held in 1970, is staged on indoor hard-court at the Inalpi Arena.
Jannik Sinner is the two-time reigning ATP Finals champion, and he secured a record-breaking $5,071,000 for winning last year’s event.
If a current-year Grand Slam winner finishes between ninth and 20th in the Race, they will take the eighth and final qualification spot.
The players who finish ninth and 10th have the chance travel to Turin as alternates and take the place of any players who withdraw.
The top five players in the ATP Rankings — Carlos Alcaraz, Sinner, Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev and Lorenzo Musetti — have not competed since the Australian Open.
Alcaraz is top of the Race to Turin rankings having collected 2,000 points for winning the Australian Open, while Djokovic — who was a runner-up in Melbourne — is second with 1,300 points.
Zverev and Sinner, who were Australian Open semi-finalists, sit third and fourth in the Race, while Musetti is in sixth position.
Auger-Aliassime, Fritz, de Minaur, Shelton and Bublik — who are ranked between sixth and 10th in the ATP Rankings — are in action this week at the ATP 500 events in Rotterdam and Dallas.
They are all still competing, with Auger-Aliassime, de Minaur and Bublik through to the quarter-finals in Rotterdam, and Fritz and Shelton through to the same stage in Dallas.
