I\u2019m living a very positive moment, winning a lot of matches, I just try to keep going like this,\u201d Sinner, who has lost only two of his 27 matches this year, told reporters.<br \/>\n\u201cIn my mind, I know that I can and have to improve if I want to win more. I\u2019m searching for new opportunities and I feel like that every tournament I play, there can be a good opportunity to show that my level has raised.<br \/>\n\u201cShowing what I\u2019ve improved \u2026 that\u2019s for sure something I\u2019d like to do here. This is a new opportunity, new tournament and we\u2019ll see how it goes.\u201d<br \/>\nDefending Madrid champion Carlos Alcaraz said Sinner was the man to beat ahead of the May 26-June 9 French Open Grand Slam.<br \/>\n\u201cHe\u2019s dangerous. He\u2019s the best player in the world right now,\u201d world number three Alcaraz said.<br \/>\n\u201cI think (some people) think his\u00a0tennis\u00a0doesn\u2019t suit well to the clay, but he\u2019s had results on clay as well.<br \/>\n\u201cHe can win every tournament he goes to, and obviously I\u2019m fighting with him and Novak to be number one. I\u2019m trying to stay there, but honestly it\u2019s going to be difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jannik Sinner can close in on Novak Djokovic at the top of the world rankings by winning the Madrid Open and would move within 330 points of Djokovic if he wins the tournament.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":9460,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"Default","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[1521,438,1726,3,250,3330,6316,387,7714,1394,5917,2788,3331,1501,6414,6121,3775,1318,340,618,3461,6305,18,7715],"class_list":["post-9459","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-other","tag-1521","tag-australian-open","tag-carlos-alcaraz","tag-cyprus","tag-google","tag-google-news","tag-jannik-sinner","tag-lost","tag-madrid-open-title","tag-man","tag-masters-tournament","tag-mind","tag-news","tag-novak-djokovic","tag-olympic-games","tag-opportunity","tag-pressure","tag-rankings","tag-tennis","tag-top","tag-tournament","tag-who","tag-world","tag-world-rankings"],"acf":{"keyphrase":"","keywords":"","sourceimg":"","country-category":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Sinner not heaping pressure on himself with top ranking in sight<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"tennis player.
