Sinner disqualified, which tournaments he misses and how many points he loses. The situation in the ranking

Milan, February 15, 2025 - And now, what happens? The three-month ban will force Jannik Sinner to remain inactive until May 4. Which means that the Internazionali d'Italia, scheduled from May 7 to 18, will mark the return to the court of the native of San Candido, who in this period of forced stop will have to watch the other competitions on TV. After starting 2025 in style with a second consecutive win at the Australian Open, our standard-bearer should have been the protagonist at the ATP 500 in Doha, which will start on Monday. After that, the calendar included the so-called American Sunshine Double for the Italian, characterized by the Masters 1000 of Indian Wells and Miami, both scheduled for March on US hard courts. Afterwards, clay, with the world number one who would probably have participated in the Monte Carlo Masters 1000 (from 6 to 13 April), giving up instead the tournament in Monaco (precisely in the days in which the hearing at the CAS should have been held). Finally, the Madrid Masters 1000 (from 23 April to 4 May). 

How many points will Sinner lose?

Failure to attend these events will mean that the South Tyrolean will leave a total of 1.600 points on the road. In fact, last season, the 2001-born player won in Miami, obtaining a haul of 1.000 points. In Monte Carlo, however, his run stopped in the semifinal against the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas, with Sinner earning 400 points, while 200 were won in Madrid, where the Italian reached the quarter-finals, before having to withdraw due to hip problems. 

Ranking prospects

Sinner is currently looking down on everyone in the standings, with 11.330 points, which will be 9.730 at the end of qualifying. His closest rival is Sascha Zverev, whom the Italian defeated in the last Australian Open final. The German is now 3.195 points behind and must defend 875 points until Madrid. To take first place, he will have to collect 2.545 points from now until the tournament held in the Spanish capital. In third place in the ranking we find Carlos Alcaraz, who has 1.475 points to defend until Madrid. The Iberian would need 3.720 points to climb to the top. In short, Sinner's lead - touching wood - seems difficult to undermine until his return to Rome.
