Tsitsipas and Sakkari Shine and Ascend the World Rankings

Stefanos Tsitsipas and Maria Sakkari have showcased impressive performances, propelling themselves up the world rankings as they prepare for the US Open.

Tsitsipas has made a strong impact in Los Cabos , reaching the final of the competition, where he will face off against Alex de Minaur for the coveted title. Following a comfortable victory against Coric in the semi-final, the Greek tennis player has secured a rise in the rankings. On Monday (7/8), he will claim the No.4 spot, displacing Casper Rudd, a significant achievement leading up to the upcoming US Open.

In addition to Tsitsipas, Maria Sakkari has also experienced a rise in the rankings. With a convincing victory over Jessica Pegula the top-ranked Greek tennis player ascends to No.8 in the world. Her progression may continue, potentially reaching the No.7 spot, depending on the outcome of Coco Gauff matches in Washington, where Gauff faces Samsonova in the semi-finals.
