ATP Rankings Winners & Losers After Miami Open: Djokovic’s Boost, Mensik’s Rise, Medvedev’s Drop
The 2025 Miami Open has significantly impacted the ATP rankings, with notable shifts among top players. Novak Djokovic’s impressive run to the final has bolstered his points tally, while young Czech talent Jakub Mensik’s breakthrough performance has propelled him into the upper echelons of the rankings. Conversely, Daniil Medvedev’s early exit has led to a decline in his standing.
Novak Djokovic’s Resurgence
Novak Djokovic, seeded fourth, has showcased exceptional form throughout the Miami Open. His victories, including a semifinal win over Grigor Dimitrov, have added 650 points to his ranking, elevating his total to 4,510 points. This achievement narrows the gap between him and fourth-ranked Taylor Fritz, who stands at 5,290 points. A triumph in the final would further boost Djokovic’s tally to 4,860 points, reinforcing his position among the ATP elite.
Jakub Mensik’s Meteoric Rise
Nineteen-year-old Jakub Mensik has been the revelation of the tournament. Entering the Miami Open ranked 54th, Mensik’s remarkable journey to the final, including a semifinal victory over Taylor Fritz, has earned him a minimum of 650 points. This surge propels him up 24 places to a projected ranking of 30th. Should he clinch the title, Mensik’s points would increase further, potentially placing him at 23rd in the rankings.
Daniil Medvedev’s Setback
Eighth seed Daniil Medvedev faced a disappointing second-round defeat to Jaume Munar, resulting in a loss of 390 points from his previous tally of 3,680. This drop is expected to move him out of the top 10, with his new ranking projected at 11th. This shift allows players like Stefanos Tsitsipas and Alex de Minaur to ascend in the rankings.
