No. 19 Alejandro Tabilo, +5 (Career High)
Tabilo became the first Chilean to win a tour-level grass-court event in the Open Era by downing Sebastian Ofner in straight sets in the Mallorca championship match. The 27-year-old lifted his second title of both the 2024 season and his career to rise five spots to a career-high World No. 19. With his countryman Nicolas Jarry one spot below him at No. 20, it marks the first time since 2005 that two Chileans are inside the Top 20.


No. 45 Sebastian Ofner, +9
Despite championship-match defeat, Austria’s Ofner also hit a milestone in Mallorca by reaching his maiden ATP Tour final at the ATP 250. The big-serving right-hander dropped just two sets en route to the title match, and he has risen back into the Top 50 for the first time since early June as a result.

No. 68 Max Purcell, +26
Another player lining up for his maiden tour-level final on Saturday was Max Purcell. The Australian marched to the Rothesay International championship match as a qualifier, securing four of his six victories on the Eastbourne grass in straight sets. Top seed Taylor Fritz proved too strong in the final, but Purcell nonetheless surges 26 spots to No. 68 in the PIF ATP Rankings.

No. 91 Shang Juncheng, +13
A second ATP Tour quarter-final appearance of the season has boosted Chinese star Shang’s qualification hopes for the Next Gen ATP Finals presented by PIF. The 19-year-old defeated Tomas Martin Etcheverry and Emil Ruusuvuori in Eastbourne to hit 10 tour-level wins for the season. As well as rising to third in the PIF ATP Live Race To Jeddah, Shang has also jumped 13 spots to No. 91 in the PIF ATP Rankings.
