Novak Djokovic retains the top spot, followed by Daniil Medvedev and Rafael Nadal.
Top-20 debut for Sinner
On the other hand, Jannik Sinner for the first time in his career has cracked into the top-20.
The Italian might have lost early in Monaco, but consistent performances over the past few months have pushed him up the ladder. Remember, the young sensation recently made the finals of the Miami Masters.
He is currently ranked 19, with 2394 points. Sinner also becomes the 12th youngest player to be ranked inside the top-20.
