​Alejandro Davidovich Fokina won the biggest title of his career at the 2026 Shanghai Masters.One week after saving a match point against Frances Tiafoe in the third round, Davidovich Fokina defeated Rafael Jodar, 1-6, 7-6, 6-4, to win the Shanghai Masters title.Picking up his first Masters 1000 title, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina jumped up to 13th in the ATP rankings, his career-high. The Spaniard is three places and 445 points off a top-10 debut, but is he really a ‘top-10 guy’? Former American ATP star Sam Querrey doesn’t think so.Sam Querrey believes Alejandro Davidovich Fokina could reach top 10 but doesn’t consider him a ‘top-10 guy’“I think this is his potential; we just saw his potential. No, he’s like a 12 guy. But he might get in the top 10. Anyone can get in the top 10 these days; if you sneak into the top 10 and you’re ranked nine for like three weeks, and the entire rest of your career, you’re out of the top 10. Are you, like, a top-10 guy? His potential is to reach the top 10; he’s not a top 10 guy,” said Querrey during the latest episode of ‘Nothing Major‘.Querrey won 10 ATP titles and reached a Grand Slam semi-final during his ATP Tour career, but never broke into the top 10. Perhaps that is why he doesn’t believe Davidovich Fokina, who only won his first title earlier this year, is a ‘top-10 guy’.ATP RankingsRankPlayerCountryPoints1Jannik SinnerItaly10,9502Alexander ZverevGermany10,0703Carlos AlcarazSpain5,6104Ben SheltonUSA4,7205Daniil MedvedevRussia3,6606Flavio CobolliItaly3,6407Felix Auger-AliassimeCanada3,5908Alex de MinaurAustralia3,4309Frances TiafoeUSA3,38010Arthur FilsFrance3,32511Rafael JodarSpain3,23412Novak DjokovicSerbia3,09013Alejandro Davidovich FokinaSpain2,88014Taylor FritzUSA2,88015Tommy PaulUSA2,575ATP RankingsJohn Isner, a former top-10 player, was also keen to share his thoughts on Davidovich Fokina. He argued that the Spaniard is a potential top-10 player and predicted what could happen to him over the next four or five years.“He got comfortable after he won his first title, once you get that first title, that pressure, that weight is lifted off your shoulders. We all know how talented he is, and the high level he can play at. He’s had a lot of brutal losses in finals. The one that comes to mind is last year’s final in Washington DC. It took him a long time to get over that, but once he got his first, it seems like he is off to the races now,” he said.Alejandro Davidovich Fokina’s record in ATP finals (3-5) 2022 Monte Carlo Masters [LOSS] vs Stefanos Tsitsipas, 3-6, 6-7 2025 Delray Beach Open [LOSS] vs Miomir Kecmanovic, 6-3, 1-6, 5-7 2025 Mexican Open [LOSS] vs Tomas Machac, 6-7, 2-6 2025 Washington Open [LOSS] vs Alex de Minaur, 7-5, 1-6, 6-7 2025 Swiss Indoors [LOSS] vs Joao Fonseca, 3-6, 4-62026 Mallorca Open [WIN] vs Ethan Quinn, 7-6, 6-32026 Chengdu Open [WIN] vs Hubert Hurkacz, 6-4, 7-62026 Shanghai Masters [WIN] vs 1-6, 7-6, 6-4“He could be a guy who could b
