What the week changed in the ranking and the Race

Griekspoor earns 250 ranking points for the title and Struff earns 165 as runner-up.

Felix Auger Aliassime scored 250 points as 2025 champion and is not in the 2026 draw. Lehecka scored 165 points at Brussels 2025 and had those points to defend in 2026, but he lost in the quarterfinals this year after reaching the 2025 final.

Raphael Collignon (100 points) and Yannick Hanfmann (38 points) also had 2025 Brussels points to defend in the 2026 draw.

Jannik Sinner (No. 2 in the ATP Race) is out of the Nitto ATP Finals with a knee injury and a season over, so the eight places go to the next players in the Race. Arthur Fils was No. 8 in the ATP Race of 19 October 2026 with 3,325 points, in a qualifying place (7 of 8 among players still available).

In the live ranking of 26 October 2026, Fils is No. 8 with 3,425 points (No. 10 in the official ranking). Cerundolo is No. 19 with 2,310 points (No. 21 in the official ranking).
