 Big week on the WTA and ATP this week, and a lot of players getting career high rankings after some shock results on both the ATP and WTA. Let's start with the past results, because in the five tournaments we had, we had a lot of new first-time champions. Starting with the WTA and the Lints open. Potipova taking out Mardic in the final 6-3-6-1. Very easy final for Potipova in the end. She got a career high ranking because of it. Over in the Abu Dhabi Open, Belinda Benchich saving three championship points to take the win over Sampsonova, 1-6-7-6-6-4. And she also added to her total this week in the race of the finals, very, very high up in the race. Heading over to the men's side of things, and Baez at the Kadoba Open. He beat Korya, 6-1-3-6-6-3 to lift the trophy at home. Over in Dallas, one of the craziest finals we've ever seen. Woo! Taking out Isna in three tie breaks, 6-7-7-6-7-6, and it was 14-12 in the final set tie break, which Woo eventually prevailed, so it was a crazy tie break to finish that match. And over in France, in Montpellier, opens to France. Sinner wins another title on Indoor Hardcore, 7-6-6-3 beating Cressy in that final, so some very interesting results all around and some epic matches from both the men and the women's tournaments. Let's start with the players that have gone up in the rankings this week on the ATP and WTA. And a career high ranking for Sampsonova, up four spots to number 15 in the world, after making the final of Abu Dhabi. Potipova goes up 13 spots to a career high 31 in the world after winning the title in Lintz and Woo. He's gone up 21 spots to 76 in the world for winning his first title and a career high for him as well. So three players getting career high rankings. Some of the players that have gone down in the rankings this week, Contavate down nine spots to 27 in the world and her ranking will continue to fall as she won't be playing next week at a tournament that she earned a lot of points at last year. Brooksby also dropped down seven spots to number 43 in the world. And Lehechka, after a very good Australian summer, he's dropped down 16 spots to 53 in the world outside the top 50 despite having a very good January. So a few big names dropping down and a few new names going up in the rankings. Let's start with the WTA rankings this week and not too many changes to the top 10, with Fionnx staying at number one with Sebelenka at two, Jabir at three, Pagula at four, Garcia at five. Those players are all within 500 points and remember Jabir isn't playing for the next couple of weeks. So there's a chance we could get some changes to that middle section. Goff is still at six, with Zachary at seven, Kazakina at eight. Benchich staying at number nine, even though she added a lot of points to her total and Rabakina stays in at number 10. So no changes, but the points have changed because there was a lot of players playing down the bottom half of the top 10 that added to their totals. Having with the race of the finals now for the WTA and we do have some changes, but not at the top. Sebelenka stays at number one with Rabakina at number two, but Belinda Benchich. She goes up to number three, three spots higher than last week after adding to her total with the Abu Dhabi Trophy. Pushing Azarenka down to number four, Lynette down to number five, and Pagula goes down to number six. Garcia at seven, Zou goes in at number eight, and we have a change down the bottom. Coco got falling out of the top 10, making way for Vekic going up to number nine, and Osta Penko going up to 10, rounding out the top 10 for this week. But very interesting, we're starting to see a little bit of a shape to the WTA finals race after about a month and a half. Jumping over to the ATP rankings this week and no real big changes with Djokovic staying at number one. Elkera's at number two with City Pass at number three. Rude still at number four with Rubelebed five, Rafa just behind him at number six. We do have a change in the middle with Fritz going up one spot to number seven, pushing FAA down to number eight, and that's a Cree high ranking for Taylor Fritz at number seven after making the semifinals of Dallas, and he is playing this week as well, so he might be able to move a little closer to Rafa there. Rune comes in at number nine, and her catch rounds out the top 10 for this week. Taking a look at the race of the finals now, and a couple of changes here, nothing up the top though, because Djokovic still at number one with City Pass at number two, thanks to those Australian Open finals points. Hashinov comes in at three with Paul at four, Sheldon at five, quarter at six, but Fritz, he goes up to number seven, two spots higher than last week after that Dallas semifinal, and Yannick Sinner goes up to number eight after winning in Montpellier 15 spots higher than last week, so he is rocketed into that top eight, pushing Lehechka down two spots to number nine, Nori goes down two spots to number 10, and Andrei Rublev is out of the top 10 completely after not playing this week, so some changes down the bottom there, and look at that, four Americans in the top 10 for the race of the finals, it is absolutely crazy. Let's see if they continue, because of course, it's only early in the season, and I'm sure a lot of the names we're seeing right now are not gonna be factors three to six months from now. So there you have it, a big week for the rankings, and a big week for players low in the rankings as well. Big names, you know, not really playing this week, they are playing next week though. Doha, we've got a massive field in Doha, and in Rotterdam as well, and we have the return of Alcaraz, which I think is gonna be very interesting for the rankings, it's gonna shake things up a little bit. Of course, while he wasn't playing in Australia, he lost his ranking, he lost his world number one ranking, so he's back in action. Let me know down in the comments below, what's been the biggest shock for you this week, rankings-wise, is the fact that some of the players, maybe that we're used to seeing in the race of the finals, aren't quite in the finals yet, because they obviously haven't played that much, or they haven't got points to get them in that finals race, or is the fact that we're seeing so many new players winning titles and getting good rankings, like Woo for example, coming out of nowhere to win Dallas, and he beat some really good players along the way as well. Let me know down in the comments below, what's been the biggest shock for you in the rankings this week.
