Jannik Sinner’s successful Wimbledon title defence brought more than another major trophy. It also lifted the Italian to No 4 on the all-time career prize money list.

Before Wimbledon 2026, Sinner sat at No 6, with Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer occupying the top three spots and Alexander Zverev and Carlos Alcaraz positioned above him. Zverev had recently passed both Alcaraz and Sinner after his French Open run, but the order shifted again once Sinner collected $4,830,756 (£3,600,000) for his latest Wimbledon triumph.

That result leaves Sinner close to becoming only the fourth player to move beyond $70m in career prize money. He has already earned $11,620,364 in 2026 and is on track to break the $20m barrier for the first time in a season.

His rise has been rapid. Last year, he took in $19,120,641, a total that included a record $5,071,000 for winning the ATP Finals undefeated. He finished second on the 2025 earnings list behind Alcaraz, who made $21,354,778, after leading the way in 2024 with $19,735,703.

At the end of the 2024 season, Sinner stood on $37,238,688. Since the start of the 2025 campaign, he has added another $32,347,873. From just $36 in prize money in his first professional year, he now sits on $69,586,561.

Zverev is fifth with $68,392,312, while Alcaraz is on $64,997,598 after not adding to his tally since April because of injury. Andy Murray has fallen to No 7 on $64,687,542, with Daniil Medvedev eighth on $52,192,594. Djokovic, Sinner, Zverev, Alcaraz and Medvedev are the only active players to have passed $40m.

Djokovic remains far ahead in first place with $194,656,816, including $3,000,801 earned in 2026. Nadal is second on $134,946,100 and Federer third on $130,594,339.

Felix Auger-Aliassime moved to a career-high No. 4 in the ATP rankings following his deepest run at Roland Garros, where the 25-year-old reached the quarterfinals for the first time before losing to eventual finalist Flavio Cobolli. The result completed a personal Grand Slam milestone: having previously reached the quarterfinals or better at the Australian Open, Wimbledon and the US Open, he became the first Canadian man to reach the quarterfinals or better at all four majors in his career.

The rise from No. 6 to No. 4 surpasses his prior best of No. 5 and places him tied for the second-highest-ranked Canadian in ATP or WTA rankings history. The only other Canadians to reach the top four are Milos Raonic and Bianca Andreescu. Raonic went as high as No. 3 in 2016, following his run to the Wimbledon final that year, and Andreescu peaked at No. 4 in 2019 after winning the US Open.

Canadian tennis has seen seven players reach the top 10 in either ATP or WTA history, with official rankings available since 1973 for the ATP and 1975 for the WTA.

Auger-Aliassime still has ground to cover to move higher in the standings. He is 2,865 points behind the current world No. 3, Alexander Zverev, with the rankings showing Zverev at 7,305 points and Auger-Aliassime at 4,440.

The Canadian will shift his focus to grass. He begins his grass-court season this week at the ATP 250 event in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, entering as the No. 1 seed. After a first-round bye he will open against either Hubert Hurkacz or Marton Fucsovics.

The new ranking reflects a season of important progress for Auger-Aliassime and cements his place among the highest-ranked Canadians in modern tennis history.

Emilio Nava was awarded the 2026 Neckarcup title after Luka Mikrut withdrew from the final with a shoulder injury, handing the American his seventh ATP Challenger trophy and his first of the season.

The 24-year-old arrived in Bad Rappenau as the second seed and produced one of the tournament’s sharper displays in the semifinals, a 6-1, 6-4 win over Henri Squire that lasted 58 minutes. After that victory Nava said: “Henri had an off day today, while everything worked for me.”

Sunday’s championship match never began after Mikrut addressed the Centre Court crowd and detailed his condition. “I have severe pain in my shoulder. I tried everything with the physios, the doctor, and pain medication,” the Croatian explained. “But I was worried that playing a match could make it even worse. To beat Emilio, I would need to be at 150 percent, not just 100. I wouldn’t have been able to do that today.”

Nava acknowledged mixed feelings on lifting the trophy. “It’s a bittersweet feeling today,” Nava admitted after lifting the trophy. “But this tournament has been fantastic. The organization is outstanding, and this was definitely one of the most enjoyable weeks of the year for us. I always love playing in Germany.”

The title continues the upward trajectory Nava has built since winning four Challenger trophies in 2025. “It was definitely my best season so far and I’m proud of what I achieved,” he said during the week. “Winning four Challenger titles is something special. But I still think my real breakthrough at ATP Tour level is ahead of me. These things don’t happen overnight.” Now World No. 87, Nava was also candid about the strength of American men on tour. “We’re just good players,” Nava joked. “Look at guys like Ben Shelton, Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul, Frances Tiafoe, Brandon Nakashima and Alex Michelsen. They’re all doing great. We get along well, but we’re also extremely competitive. We push each other every day to become better players.”

Nava splits training between Buenos Aires and Florida. “My coach is from Spain and my physio is Argentinian, so naturally I spend a lot of time around Spanish-speaking people,” he explained. Off court he said, “I love video games. Right now, I’m playing a lot of Battlefield. I also enjoy going to the beach, relaxing and spending time with friends.” He added lighter moments from the week: “We played Frisbee in the park, spent time playing video games indoors, and shared a lot of laughs with the team and the other players.” Asked about celebration plans, he laughed: “I wish there was a big party,” he laughed. “But I’ll have dinner with my team and treat myself to some ice cream.”

Nava leaves Germany with 100 ATP ranking points and €23,700 in prize money. Tournament officials praised the level of play but noted attendance was low across eight days. “The level of tennis between world rankings 100 and 200 is outstanding,” said tournament manager Metehan Cebeci. “The week was sunny, rainy, emotional and exciting,” Tournament Director Mine Cebeci said. “And on finals day, I think we can all be very satisfied.”
