Insider Gill Gross has released his power rankings ahead of the 2025 French Open, that has many unexpected inclusions while leaving out Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev from the top three positions. Heavily determined by the performances showcased by the ATP stars during the clay stint, the rankings gave an idea of what the men’s draw at the tournament might have in store.
The top two positions were reserved by the Italian Open finalists, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, who have displayed top-notch tennis in Rome. They are expected to do the same in Paris. Zverev’s inclusion in the top three, however, will still be under scrutiny as the tennis star is currently competing in Hamburg, and hence, his results in this tournament will affect the final standings.
Djokovic, on the other hand, has put up a concerning form on the surface, marked by consecutive early exits followed by a withdrawal from Rome, which has affected his position. Gross, in his podcast, the Monday Match Analysis, laid out a list of potential top performers at the French Open.
