Updated ATP rankings - World No. 1 returns, Madrid champ makes jump image

(getty)

The French Open is just a couple weeks away and tennis pros are sharpening their craft leading up to Roland-Garros.

The clay court season is in full swing after the Madrid Open. Casper Ruud claimed his first Masters 1000 title 

It's carried the Norwegian into the top 10 to start May. 

He's not the only change in the ATP singles rankings. 

Who is the world No. 1 in men's tennis?

Jannik Sinner still holds his number one ranking. With the Australian Open title in his pocket, Sinner has a significant lead on Alexander Zverev and Carlos Alcaraz.

The Italian is now reinstated from a three-month ban he accepted after failing two doping tests in March of 2024. 

He will return to action at the Italian Open in Rome that begins May 9th.
