Roland Garros 2024, Alacaraz king of Paris and Sinner number 1 Atp. Djokovic eyes the Paris Olympics

Roland Garros 2024 goes away with some indelible flashbacks. The first is that of Carlos Alcaraz triumphant of the Parisian Slam after two fantastic comebacks, trailing 2-1 in the semi-final with Jannik Sinner (new world number 1 and first Italian to climb to the top of the ATP rankings) and in the final with Zverev, Nadal’s heir overturned both matches and emerged triumphant. At 21, Carlito won 3 Majors on 3 different surfaces: before Paris, the triumphs on the hard courts of the US Open and on the grass of Wimbledon. He only needs the Australian to complete all 4 Slams. Meanwhile Novak Djokovic underwent knee surgery: participating in Wimbledon (where he reached the final a year ago) seems difficult, the hope is to see Nole on the field at the Paris Olympics. Meanwhile he has lost his first world position, dropping to number 3 (also overtaken by Alcaraz): the 37-year-old’s record of weeks at the top of the ranking therefore stops for now at 428.
