Jannik Sinner ran away from the rest of the pack for most titles on the men’s tour this year, piling up eight of them—twice as many as the next man on the list, Carlos Alcaraz, who finished with four.

The Italian’s haul this year included two Grand Slams, the ATP Finals, three Masters 1000s and two ATP 500s. He also led Italy to a second straight Davis Cup title at the end of the season.

It’s the most titles in a season for a man since 2016, when Andy Murray won nine of them (including one major at Wimbledon).

MEN WITH 3+ TITLES IN 2024 (tour-level):

8: Jannik Sinner [Australian Open, Rotterdam, Miami, Halle, Cincinnati, US Open, Shanghai, ATP Finals]
4: Carlos Alcaraz [Indian Wells, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, Beijing]
3: Tommy Paul [Dallas, Queen’s Club, Stockholm]
3: Matteo Berrettini [Marrakech, Gstaad, Kitzbuehel]

Alcaraz is the only man to win titles on all three surfaces this year—one on clay (Roland Garros), one on grass (Wimbledon) and two on hard courts (Indian Wells and Beijing).

An additional 12 men finished the year with two titles: Alexander Zverev, Taylor Fritz, Casper Ruud, Andrey Rublev, Alex de Minaur, Ugo Humbert, Jack Draper, Karen Khachanov, Arthur Fils, Alejandro Tabilo, Sebastian Baez and Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard.

Sinner won more than half of the tournaments he played this year (8 of 15). That doesn't include Davis Cup, a team event, which he also won.

Meanwhile, the race for most titles on the women’s tour this year was much closer, but Iga Swiatek held off the rest of the field, finishing with five of them. Broken down by level, her haul this year includes one Grand Slam title and four WTA 1000s.

It’s the Pole’s third straight year leading this list.

WOMEN WITH 3+ TITLES IN 2024 (tour-level):

Another five women won two titles this year: Jessica Pegula, Daria Kasatkina, Danielle Collins, Jelena Ostapenko and Katie Boulter.
