Italy's Flavio Cobolli entered the top
10 of the ATP men's singles rankings when they were updated on
Monday after his stunning run at the French Open ended with a
6-1, 4-6, 6-4, 6-7(5), 6-1 defeat to Germany's world number
three Alexander Zverev in Sunday's final.
He is 10th in the new rankings and he has also become the 10th
Italian man in history to enter the top 10.
The ranking is still headed by Italy's world number one Jannik
Sinner, who exited in the second round at Roland Garros after
caving in physically when he was on the verge of defeating
Argentine Juan Manuel Cerundolo.
Lorenzo Musetti, who is injured at the moment and did not take
part in the French Open, has dropped down five positions to
16th.
Luciano Darderi has climbed one place to 18th.
Matteo Arnaldi and Matteo Berrettini, who both started the
French Open outside the top 100, have returned to the top 50
after reaching the semi-finals and quarter-finals at Roland
Garros respectively.
Former Wimbledon finalist Berrettini, who withdrew with a hip
injury in the second set of his quarter-final with Arnaldi, has
moved up 57 places to 48th.
Arnaldi, who had to withdraw from the semifinal against Cobolli
because of a virus, has climbed 70 positions to 34th.
