The grass-court swing continued on the ATP Tour at the cinch Championships and the Terra Wortmann Open, where Tommy Paul and Jannik Sinner lifted trophies, respectively. ATPTour.com looks at the movers in the PIF ATP Rankings as of Monday, 24 June.
[ATP APP]No. 12 Tommy Paul, +1 (Joint Career High)
The 27-year-old has become the American No. 1 for the first time after he captured his third tour-level title in London. Paul, who beat Lorenzo Musetti in the final, dropped just one set en route to the crown. With his run, he surpassed Taylor Fritz as the American No. 1.
“It's an honour to become the No. 1 American, but we both have big goals and we want to be in the Top 10 [of the] rankings,” Paul said when asked about rising to No. 1 and Fritz. “That's where both of us want to be.”

The Pole has climbed to a career-high No. 7 in the PIF ATP Rankings after advancing to the final at the ATP 500 event in Halle. Hurkacz downed Alexander Zverev in the semi-finals for his fifth Top 10 win on grass, but was unable to overcome World No. 1 Sinner in the title match.
