The Instagram following totals of Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic

Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic are arguably the biggest stars in men’s tennis right now, with each boasting a huge following on social media.

Alcaraz is undoubtedly the man of the moment, claiming two titles from his two tournaments in the 2026 season so far.

One of those titles arrived at the Australian Open, where he beat Djokovic in the final after the Serbian knocked out Sinner in the semifinals.

The trio fittingly occupy the top three spots in the ATP rankings, but how do their Instagram followings compare?

Considered by many as the greatest male player of all time, it is Djokovic who leads the way with 16.4 million followers on Instagram.

With 8.4 million, Alcaraz is second on the list, while third-placed Sinner has 5.1 million followers on the social media platform.

For comparison, other iconic players such as Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal have totals of 13.1 million and 21.2 million respectively.

While the three ATP icons care deeply about their fans, success on the court will be much more important to all three.

And given his age, it is unsurprisingly 38-year-old Djokovic who once again leads the younger duo in that regard, at least in terms of major glory.

He fell short of a record-breaking 25th Grand Slam title at the Australian Open, but remains top of the men’s all-time list.

His fellow legend Nadal is second with 22 and Federer is third with 20, while Pete Sampras is next in the list with 14.

Alcaraz is creeping up the all-time leaderboard after clinching his seventh major title in Melbourne, where he completed the career Grand Slam.

Sinner can do the same if he wins the French Open, with the Italian currently boasting four Grand Slam titles.

The Spaniard has a superb 7-1 record from his finals, three of which have arrived against Sinner, who has a 4-2 finals record.

Their rivalry is unquestionably the best in men’s tennis right now, with many fans uncertain over which player will end their career with more Grand Slam titles, and indeed what their overall totals will be.
