Welcome to the third edition. Pick (in any order) the players you believe will finish in the ATP Top 10 at the end of the 2025 season. All picks must be submitted before the season begins.

It looks like you think Tsitsipas will break out of his slump.

Why is that?

This stuff belongs to GPPD, not PMRD

I don't think so because there will be updated Top 10 live rankings and discussion about match results as players rise and fall out of the Top 10.

 

[Beacon Hill]

Moderators,
It makes no sense to move this thread. There will be discussion about results from recent matches, and live rankings will be posted regularly. For two years this has been in the Pro Player Results forum, and now you move it for the third year.

They sent me a message saying they viewed it as a prediction thread, so they moved it. Yes, there are predictions...followed by rankings updates and discussions about recent matches and players moving in and out of the top 10 - all of which are spoilers discussing match results. It's not the decision I would have made, but it's their website, so they make the rules.

 

[ChaelAZ]

Not in any order, and just basing on this season....

Alcaraz
Sinner
Medvedev
Ruud
Rune
Paul
Musetti
De Minuar
Zverev
Hurkz

Just based on those there defending and a few that have been progressively moving and improving.

I will add, I don't think Zverev will defend well so I think start of the 2025 season will flesh that out.

 

[nolefam_2024]

With age at end of the year 2025

1. Sinner 24
2. Alcaraz 22
3. Zverev 28
4. Ruud 26
5. Medvedev 29
6. Fritz 28
7. Alex De Minaur 26
8. Djokovic 38
9. Rune 22
10. Draper 24

 

[FreeJannik]

No particular order
Sinner: seems rock solid.. he may stay where it is for years.... but there's the BIG IF..
Alcaraz: totally unpredictable, result in every tournament may vary from 1st turn elimination to final victory in a very convincing way
Zverev, Fritz: Both looked very good at the of 2024
Djokovich: his time is running low... but there is still some sand in his glasshour
Ruud: surprised everyone at the ATP final
Medvedev: seems burned out, but he's still a very good player

Draper: he's very talented but his physique don't seem to hold, we will see
Berrettini: more an hope than a prediction based upon a logical reasoning
Paul: i really like his game... i think he have a chance to reach the top ten

 

[Genie Of the Bank]

Probable reality at the end of 2025.
1. Carlos
2. Sinner
the rest is not interesting for me.
My wish is for Djokovic and Murray to win two slams even do its like 10% chance for it.

I think berrettini is more of a top 15 player, but i get the nominations

 

[nolefam_2024]

Can tsitsipas get back into top 10?

He is at number 11 but 1330 of his 3165 points came from Barcelona and MC. For rest of the year he has regressed on serve.

[Aabye5]

It looks like you think Tsitsipas will break out of his slump.

Yep. I honestly saw some of the best tennis I've seen from him in a long time during the indoor swing. Although even today he's sitting at 11, so it would be surprising for him to see him leapfrog either Dimitrov or De Minaur.

Way less sure about Shelton and Rune. Would be thrilled to see Humbert or FAA, but Humbert lacks a bit of consistency and FAA is toiling close to the 30s.

[Hawks9451]

Sinner / Alcaraz 1 and 2 feels right - could go either way
3,4,5,6 is trickier as I feel like Zverev, Fritz, Musetti, Ruud, Medvedev, and Fritz could all either improve (which would cement their place in these slots) or fall apart in terms of injury, burnout, or a technical regression
The 3-6 wildcard is Tsitsipas, as he might reach enlightenment post-coachdad if he keeps watching School of Life videos on Youtube.
7-10 Draper, Paul, & Tsitsipas feel right. This is the volatile zone where breakthroughs. I've got Draper, Fonseca, Lehecka, Mensik, or Mpetshi Perricard in one of these spots if '24 was anything to go by.

This is basically what I'd want. I wouldn't go nuts betting on that bottom 5, but it wouldn't surprise me.

I'm also thinking a few young players will break through this year, knocking out Rublev and Dimitrov, and perhaps even Medvedev, who seems disinterested.

 

[Rovesciarete]

Also no particular order:

Sinner
Alcaraz
Zverev
Medvedev
Djokovic
Fritz
Rune
Rublev
Ruud
De Minaur

Draper, Tsitsipas, Hurkacz, Paul are all so close, Mensik, Shelton could also make inroads. I like big Mic but still to far. From 6 or 7 to ten it becomes incredibly close...

It looks like you still have faith in Rune.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

In a rough order:

Sinner
Alcaraz
Djokovic
Fritz
Medvedev
Zverev
Dimitrov
Draper
Ruud
Tiafoe

Rublev and De Minaur to drop out the top 10. Replaced by Draper and Tiafoe.
Dimitrov and Ruud will stay in the top 10. The other top 6 were easy choices.
Rune and Tsitsipas will stay out of the top 10.

Paul, Hurkacz and Musetti were the 3 other I could definitely see in the top 10 too in line with Draper and Tiafoe.

 

[nolefam_2024]

Push rublev out of top 10 finally.

 

[GloW]

Push rublev out of top 10 finally.

Rublev is more likely to stay than Dimitrov, lol.

 

[zakopinjo]

Alcaraz

Djokovic
Zverev

Draper
Hurkacz
Rublev
Tsitsipas

 

[nolefam_2024]

Both will go 90%.

Adm will likely stay if not injured.

 

[Sudacafan]

Tomic
Kyrgios
Monfils
De Minaur
Shapovalov
Rune
Tsitsipas
Nishikori
Ruud
Murray
Dimitrov finishes 11.
Zverev will likely not make the top 50.

I am betting my house on this.

Murray coming out of retirement, rejoining the tour, winning Munich and Madrid Masters, then winning US Open to squeak into the top 10 while also simultaneously coaching Djokovic (who he beats in US Open final) would be epic.

Yes, it shows you know a lot about tennis, as me.

 

[Subway Tennis]

There is one person who knows more about tennis than anyone on here - sureshs.

He also agrees with your prediction, which is the seal of approval.

 

[Rovesciarete]

It looks like you still have faith in Rune.

He is too good and still young enough to get more things less wrong in 2025.

I left a particular player off my list to not jinx him...

 

[Beacon Hill]

In a rough order:

Sinner
Alcaraz

You don't think Dimitrov's age will start being a factor?

 

[Beacon Hill]

Tsitsipas

Hurkacz just keeps disappointing me.

Solid picks.

Man life really was better in the ol days

 

[Sudacafan]

Solid picks.

Thanks. I always like to provide some insight, as it's too hard for the common folk to understand what's going on. I see that people are so lost.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

You don't think Dimitrov's age will start being a factor?

Not yet. He finished the year so strongly and he’s decent in Australia. Defending champ in Brisbane but could get good points at the Aus Open and period after that. He’s proven on grass too. I can see him holding on, meanwhile De Minaur I think will unfortunately get injured as he’s so injury prone plus I value Dimitrov as a better player. Rublev seems to have completely fallen off. Dimi being under the radar helps too.
