Before Carlos Alcaraz was upset by Alexander Zverev in the Australian Open quarterfinals, the young Spanish sensation had the opportunity to regain the world #1 ranking from Novak Djokovic if he won the Australian Open. However, that will not happen, and it is now Carlos Alcaraz who risks losing his number two spot at the hands of Daniil Medvedev if the Russian player wins the Australian Open. In that case, Daniil will have 9465 points, which would be enough for him to overtake Carlitos, who will have 9255 points.
These are the latest live rankings.
