Jannik Sinner is nearly guaranteed to end 2025 as the world No. 2, trailing Carlos Alcaraz.

After losing the world No. 1 spot to Carlos Alcaraz, the world No. 2 player Jannik Sinner is expected to skip both the Paris Masters and Davis Cup — two of the most significant events in the final stretch of the 2025 season.

According to journalist Simone Eterno from Eurosport Italy, Sinner will only participate in the Vienna Open at the end of October and the ATP Finals in Turin starting November 9. This decision comes as he recovers from an injury sustained at the Shanghai Masters, where Sinner had to withdraw midway, raising concerns about his fitness.

Skipping the Paris tournament means Sinner will close the season without securing any ATP 1000 titles, following his last victory at Miami in 2024. This marks a significant disappointment for the player who dominated the ATP rankings during the first half of this year.

Nevertheless, Sinner is still expected to compete in the 6 Kings Slam exhibition event in Saudi Arabia, where he could earn a substantial prize. This is seen as an opportunity to maintain his form ahead of the most important tournament of the year — the ATP Finals, featuring the top 8 players of the calendar year.

Sinner’s 2025 season has been full of ups and downs: he began the year by winning his second Australian Open title but was then suspended for three months due to a doping violation. Upon returning, the Italian player lost to Alcaraz in a thrilling Roland Garros final but avenged that defeat by winning at Wimbledon. However, Carlitos ultimately triumphed at the US Open, reclaiming the world No. 1 ranking.

"We are witnessing the rise of one of the greatest rivalries in tennis history. Sinner and Alcaraz are pushing each other to extraordinary limits.", said Craig Tiley, director of the Australian Open.
