Polish Iga Swiatek combined his spot as No. 1 in the world by winning the Stuttgart tournament on Sunday, but is now followed by Spaniard Paula Badosa, who stopped in the semi-finals.

Swiatek seemed unbeatable for a few weeks. He won his fourth consecutive German clay tournament, after victories in Doha, Indian Wells and Miami. He will have Internationals of France favorite status in Paris (which starts on May 22), with his 23 consecutive victories.

Behind her, Badosa overtook Czech Barbora Krejcíková, who is now No. 3 in the world, but by only two points.

Despite her defeat against Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka (no 4) 7-6 (7/5) and 6-4, Badosa reached her best ranking, more than 2000 points behind Swiatek however.

Britain’s Emma Raducanu climbed to No. 11, and Leylah Annie Fernandez of Canada is back in the top 20, to 20th.

Félix Auger-Aliassime lost his seat

At the age of 18, Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz made it into the world top 10 on Monday.

In the ATP rankings published on Monday, he climbed to 9th place, becoming the youngest to join this very close circle since Rafael Nadal in 2005.

On Sunday, Alcaraz continued their impressive start to the season by winning the ATP 500 tournament from Barcelona.

This title allows him to climb two spots in the ATP rankings, and overtake Quebecer Félix Auger-Aliassime, who slipped a step towards 10th place.

Belgrade finalist Novak Djokovic still sits in first place in the ATP rankings, ahead of Russian Daniil Medvedev, who announced in early April that he had been injured, estimating he would be missing within one to two months.

Canadian Denis Shapovalov is still 16th in the world.
