PARIS, France -- Spanish teenager Carlos Alcaraz moved to the brink of the ATP top 10 on Monday after winning the biggest title of his career so far at the Miami Open.
The 18-year-old gained five places in the latest rankings to climb to 11th spot, just behind Britain's Cameron Norrie.
Alcaraz beat Casper Ruud in the Miami final on Sunday.
Novak Djokovic retained the top ranking despite being unable to play in the United States last week.
The Serbian star only holds a slender advantage over Daniil Medvedev, although the Russian is now set for one to two months out of action due to a hernia.
