Who was the youngest number 1 tennis player?
Carlos Alcaraz became the youngest tennis player ever to take the No. 1 position among the world’s top touring pros, the benefit of besting Casper Ruud at the U.S. Open on Sunday. At 19, the Spaniard is also the only male teenager to top the Pepperstone ATP Rankings, with women giving the world much younger tour leaders for decades.
Spain’s Alcaraz on Sunday beat Norway’s Casper Ruud, 23, in the U.S. Open final 6-4, 2-6, 7-6, 6-3, a well-matched battle that would have seen either player, ranked third and fifth respectively, take the No. 1 spot.
