It was a big day for Carlos Alcaraz at the ATP Finals in Turin on Thursday, as he not only qualified for the semifinals of the year-end championships, but he also clinched the year-end No. 1 ranking.
But there was one more thing that may have gotten lost in the mix.
His 6-4, 6-1 win over Lorenzo Musetti on Thursday was his milestone 70th win of the year. He’s now an incredible 70-8 this season.
And no other man will even come close to that win tally.
MOST WINS ON MEN’S TOUR THIS YEAR (tour-level):
- 70: Carlos Alcaraz [70-8]
- 56: Alex de Minaur [56-23]
- 55: Jannik Sinner [55-6]
- 55: Alexander Zverev [55-24]
- 53: Taylor Fritz [53-23]
Sinner and Zverev will go for their 56th wins of the year on Friday, but none of De Minaur, Sinner or Zverev can leave Turin with more than 58 wins. The German is the only one of the three who can add more, as he’s the only one scheduled to play the Davis Cup Finals next week.
Alcaraz is also scheduled to play the Davis Cup Finals next week.
