The X account Jeu, Set et Maths took advantage of the start of the ATP Finals this Sunday to release statistics on the players participating in the tournament in Turin during this 2025 season, which is about to end.
Among them is a statistic on their record in decisive sets. The leader of this ranking is Carlos Alcaraz, with a win rate of 78.9% (15 wins for 4 losses) in matches that went to 5 sets or 3 sets in a best-of-3 sets format.
Surprisingly, the world number 1, Jannik Sinner, only ranks 5th in this ranking. With a record of 4 wins and 3 losses, he has a ratio of 57.1%. Among these 3 losses, we find the epic final lost against Alcaraz at Roland-Garros, but also a 3-set loss in Halle against Alexander Bublik and a retirement against Tallon Griekspoor in Shanghai.
