 Welcome back to the ranking show. My name's Cam Williams and we've got some big changes to the WTA rankings this week With some players reaching career high rankings getting to the top 10 for the first time as well And the finals are starting to shape up now with the ATP and WTA finals just around the corner Let's start with last week's results because we had three tournaments last week and some big winners as well So let's start at the Estrava open WTA 500 event So a lot of points up for grabs and Contobate defeated Sarkary 6-2-7-5 to lift the biggest trophy of her career so far But Sarkary did get rewarded for making the final and we'll talk about that just in a second going over to the ATP now And then ATP 250 event at the Astana open with Kwon winning his first ever ATP title beating Duckworth in the final 7-6-6-3 so we've got a brand new champion this week in Kwon and then heading over to France at the Macelle open We had her catch beating Karinio Buster 7-6-6-3 and her catch is starting to cement his spot in the ATP finals as well So winning this title just helps him a lot going into the end of the year and helping him get that ATP final spot Let's head over to the WTA rankings the top 10 for this week Like I said, we had some changes within the top 10 with Ash Barty She stays at number one with Saberlenker at number two, Klischkofer stays at number three But Svedolina she drops down two spots to number six being replaced by Sviantec who made a semi-final last week in Estrava So she had a good week last week and she is at a career high number four in the world So congratulations to her she is just rising up the ranks She's followed very closely behind by a number five Kredgikova Svedolina at six and Kenan she drops down to number eight with Osaka going up to number seven So a little bit of a switch in the rankings there Muguruuta stays at number nine and we have a new top 10 player new high ranking for Maria Sarkari She goes up two spots to number ten pushing out Kovitava down to number eleven So Sarkari also getting to a career high ranking and getting into the top ten for the first time Okay, heading over to the WTA finals rankings the race to Mexico because of course it's been changed from Shenzhen to Mexico this year We have Barty staying at number one She's already qualified as has Saberlenker who's at number two Kredgikova at three Klischkofer at four all of those have qualified But Sarkari she goes up to number five overtaking Sveontek after having a really good week this week actually beats Sveontek last week as well Which kind of interesting to see if they might play at the WTA finals if they both qualify Sveontek at number six Osaka at number seven, but Osaka has pulled out of Indian Wells So I don't know if she's actually going to be playing the WTA finals this year I highly doubt that she will so she's at number seven for now Don't be surprised if she pulls out of the competition Muguruuta at eight Jabor at nine and Elise Mertens She drops down out of the top ten making way for Pavlochenkova who makes her return to the WTA race to Mexico top ten Some of the players that have gone up in the rankings over the last week We have Contovate after winning the Estrava open She goes up seven spots number 23 in the world and Taikman She's gone up four spots to a career high number 38 in the world So she's having a great season Taikman and really getting into the form that she was in Before the US Open beating some big players as well So good to see Taikman continuing on her form Some of the players that have dropped down to the rankings. We have risk. She's dropped down 18 spots to number 50 in the world After losing a bunch of points from the Wuhan Open from two years ago that have dropped off She got to the final that event two years ago, so she lost a lot of points and Vanuat Bank She's gone down 34 spots to number 89 after dropping all her points from the Tashkent open that she won two years ago So the points that players had earned two years ago starting to fall off and next week Osaka has a lot of points That the China Open which will lose so we're going to keep on the rankings here because things are going to start changing very rapidly on the WTA side Having a look at the ATP rankings now for the top 10 for the men and no change with Djokovic staying at number one Mehvedev at number two, Siddi Pass at three, Zverev stays at four, Rubelev at five, Nadal stays at six, Baratini at seven Team at eight, Federer at nine and Kasparud rounding out the top ten A lot of those players of course played the Lever Cup but even though they won the Lever Cup with Team Europe You don't get any points for that so that's why there are no changes in the top ten for the men this week Heading over to the ATP race to Turin, the race to Italy and there are some changes in the top ten However Djokovic stays at number one with Mehvedev at number two and Siddi Pass at three and of course they've qualified already But we have a new player who is qualified for the finals, Alexander Zverev He is now qualified for the ATP finals, lock him in, he is playing at the end of the year He stays at number four, Rubelev is very close behind and very close to qualifying himself He's actually playing this week as well so with a good result he might qualify by next week as well He's at number five, Baratini at six, we have a change to the rankings with Hercatch Going up one spot after winning a tournament last week while Rudd played the Lever Cup not winning any points So Rudd goes down one spot to number eight, Hercatch goes up to number seven again trying to solidify his spot in that top eight We have Ozealia Seym at number nine and Yannick Sinner rounding out the top ten Players that have gone up in the rankings this week, we have the two finalists From the Astana Open, Duckworth, he's got up nine spots to a career high ranking number 56 in the world He's been in some great form lately, actually won a Challenger event last week as well so his ranking is starting to rise with some really good results And the winner of last week's event, Kwon, he's got up 25 spots to number 57 in the world which is a career high for him as well So two career high rankings this week for players that played well, getting to a big final on the ATP so good to see they're getting rewarded The players that have dropped down on the rankings for the ATP, we have Diminor He's dropped down five spots to number 26 in the world after he lost the points from the Zuhar Championships from two years ago Like I said, the Asian swing was supposed to be this time but because it's not being played, a lot of points are being lost And Manorino, he actually made the final of that same event two years ago, he's gone down 11 spots to number 54 in the world So a couple of players that played well in Asia a couple of years ago, starting to lose points and dropping down on the rankings So there you have it, they're the rankings for this week and some big changes for the WTA in particular We're starting to see the ATP finals, WTA finals starting to shape up, players are starting to qualify Four spots left from each tournament at the end of the year so it's going to be fun to watch over the next couple of weeks Especially Indian Wells, that's worth a lot of points But as I said before, we're supposed to have the Asian swing at this time during the season And a lot of players are going to start losing points because the rankings for both the men and the women are back to normal So we're going to start seeing a lot of points being lost from the ATP and WTA rankings over the next couple of weeks But let me know down in the comments below, who are you most surprised about being in the top 10? Because like I said, we've got a lot of players that are still in the top 10 because they're holding onto ranking points that they made two years ago That'll start changing over the next couple of weeks So we're starting to see players qualifying for the end of year finals and the spots are starting to be taken up Not too many spots left for the rest of the year
