Several players had dramatic rises on the ATP Rankings thanks to their impressive play throughout the year 2022.
One of the best players in this regard is Nick Kyrgios, an Australian who began the year with a strong performance in the Australian Open and never lost steam. Positive outcomes came and went, as Kyrgios gradually raised both his singles and doubles ranks. He was 93rd when the year began, and he was 22nd when it was over.
Another person whose ranking rose this year is Carlos Alcaraz. More significantly for the Spaniard, he was able to claim his first grand slam victory, which earned him the world's top rating, which he will retain into the next year. He started the year in 33rd place and, astonishingly, finished first.
We've also heard motivational tales from the WTA with Caroline Garcia's sensational comeback season this year. Although she didn't get off to a great start and didn't really pick up steam until the halfway point of the season, she still managed to move up in the rankings from 74 at the beginning to number 4 by the end.
Ben Shelton is another talent who will undoubtedly have an influence next year. The college player began the year at position 573 in the rankings but moved up to position 97 by the end of the year thanks to a streak of outstanding challenger tour performances.
