Alejandro Davidovich Fokina stands among the most notable active players without an ATP singles title after a narrow loss to Alex de Minaur at the Citi DC Open. This status puts him at the forefront of a distinguished group of seven accomplished players who have yet to capture an ATP Tour title despite strong performances.

Fabian Marozsan, ranked 56th and 25 years old, has yet to reach an ATP final but made quarter-finals in Masters events in Shanghai (2023) and Miami (2024). He boasts six top-10 wins, highlighted by his upset of Carlos Alcaraz at the 2023 Italian Open, and reached a career-high ranking of 36th in May 2024.

Tomas Martin Etcheverry is a three-time ATP 250 finalist, all on clay. The Argentine narrowly missed victory in several finals including a 2023 Chile Open loss after holding match point. His best run in a Grand Slam was a quarter-final appearance at the 2023 French Open. He achieved a career peak ranking of 27th in February 2024.

Matteo Arnaldi, ranked 43rd with a career-high of 30th (August 2024), has made impressive deep runs at Masters 1000 tournaments, including a semi-final at the 2024 Canadian Open and a quarter-final in Madrid in 2025. He has five top-10 wins, including a notable upset over Novak Djokovic in Madrid earlier this year.

American Alex Michelsen, aged 20, reached a career-high ranking of 30th in July 2025. Despite losing three ATP 250 finals in the U.S., he showed promise with a fourth-round appearance at the 2025 Australian Open. His finals losses include Newport (twice) and Winston Salem.

Botic van de Zandschulp, currently ranked 86th but once as high as 22nd (August 2022), was twice a finalist at the Munich clay-court 250 event. Both times he faced Holger Rune, suffering a retirement when leading, and then a tough loss after multiple championship points in 2023. He has eight career top-10 wins and notable Grand Slam runs including the 2021 US Open quarter-final.

Hyeon Chung’s career has been hampered by injuries, but he remains a respected competitor, ranked 364th in 2025. The South Korean made a semi-final at the 2018 Australian Open and boasts nine ATP Challenger titles but has not yet reached an ATP Tour final. He peaked at 19th in April 2018.

Davidovich Fokina is unique in being the only player inside the ATP top 32 without a title. The 26-year-old has been runner-up four times — including the 2022 Monte Carlo Masters and three finals in 2025. Several losses involved holding championship points and leads that slipped away. His career-best ranking is 19th, and his top Grand Slam showing was the 2021 French Open quarter-final. He has also defeated Novak Djokovic and other top-10 players multiple times.

Leylah Fernandez claimed her fourth and biggest career title at the 2025 Citi DC Open, a WTA 500 event held in Washington, decisively defeating Anna Kalinskaya 6-1, 6-2 in the final. Starting the tournament ranked 36th, the 22-year-old Canadian surged to 24th in the WTA rankings following her victory. Fernandez’s career-high ranking stands at world No 13.

Kalinskaya, 26, despite the runner-up finish, continues her quest for a maiden WTA Tour title, rising from 48th to 31st in the rankings post-tournament. Elena Rybakina, who reached the semifinals but was bested by Fernandez in a closely contested match, remains steady at number 12.

Emma Raducanu reached her first semifinal of the 2025 season at the Citi DC Open, where she lost to Kalinskaya. The 22-year-old from Britain climbed from 46th to 33rd place, marking her highest ranking since August 2022, right before losing points from her 2021 US Open title drop-off. However, the live WTA rankings have recently placed her at 42nd after the loss of points from last year’s quarterfinal performance at this event, which she can improve on in the upcoming Montreal tournament where she did not compete last year.

Other notable ranking changes include Maria Bouzkova climbing eight spots to 39th and Olga Danilovic dropping to 40th. Maria Sakkari and Taylor Townsend moved up significantly after reaching the quarter-finals, now ranked 72nd and 75th respectively. Elina Avanesyan and Alycia Parks saw ranking declines, dropping to 67th and 74th.

In men’s tennis during the Open Era, six players have achieved remarkable Grand Slam winning streaks of at least 25 matches, with Novak Djokovic holding the record at 30 consecutive victories. Djokovic’s streak, spanning 2015 to 2016, began at Wimbledon 2015 and included wins over Philipp Kohlschreiber, Jarkko Nieminen, Bernard Tomic, Kevin Anderson, Marin Cilic, Richard Gasquet, and Roger Federer. He continued this form by claiming the 2015 US Open and the 2016 Australian Open titles, beating top players like Feliciano Lopez, Federer, and Andy Murray. Djokovic completed the Career Grand Slam by winning the 2016 French Open, becoming just the second man in the Open Era to capture four consecutive major titles, before his run ended at Wimbledon 2016.

Roger Federer’s best streak started with his 2005 Wimbledon victory and extended across the 2005 US Open and 2006 Australian Open. Federer amassed 27 consecutive wins before narrowly falling to Rafael Nadal in the 2006 French Open final.

Rod Laver came close with 29 straight victories in 1969, capturing the Calendar Grand Slam by winning all four majors that year before his streak concluded in 1970.

Rafael Nadal’s longest streak reached 25 matches starting at the 2010 French Open, where he won the title without dropping a set. He followed this with Wimbledon and the US Open victories in 2010 and carried the streak into the 2011 Australian Open.

Pete Sampras won 25 consecutive Grand Slam matches beginning with Wimbledon 1993, taking titles at Wimbledon, US Open 1993, and the 1994 Australian Open before relinquishing his run at the 1994 French Open quarter-finals.

Jimmy Connors also achieved a 25-match Grand Slam win streak between 1974 and early 1975, capturing the Australian Open, Wimbledon, and US Open titles in 1974.

These streaks highlight sustained excellence at the highest level of men’s tennis, with match wins spanning multiple tournaments and surfaces. As Novak Djokovic holds the benchmark, these performances remain a significant part of tennis history.
