Jannik Sinner is now uncatchable at the top of the world rankings
Carlos Alcaraz suffered the pain of a shock Shanghai Masters exit on Thursday and Jannik Sinner’s run to the semi-finals has made things even worse for the Spaniard.
Alcaraz and Sinner were fancied to do battle in the last four this weekend, and while Sinner held up his end of the bargain by dominating Daniil Medvedev, Alcaraz was dismantled in straight sets by 30th seed Tomas Machac.
