Rafael Jodar and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina are both on the rise in the ATP Rankings following the 2026 Shanghai Masters, while Novak Djokovic has dropped.

Davidovich Fokina defeated Jodar 1-6, 7-6(5), 6-4 in an all-Spanish final at the Masters 1000 tournament in Shanghai on Sunday.

With the points collected for winning the biggest title of his career, Davidovich Fokina has jumped from 26th to a new career-high ranking of 13th.

Jodar has also achieved a milestone by climbing two places to his new career-best position of world No 11.

World No 2 Alexander Zverev lost to Davidovich Fokina in the semi-finals in Shanghai, and he has closed the gap to top-ranked Jannik Sinner to 880 points.

Sinner ended his 2026 season early due to a knee injury, and Zverev is guaranteed to replace the Italian as the world No 1 before the end of the year.

Felix Auger-Aliassime has dropped from fifth to seventh, with Daniil Medvedev moving up to fifth and sixth respectively.
