 Welcome back to Tennis Talk, my name is Cam Williams and it's time for the weekly ranking show where we go through all the ATP and WTA rankings for the week and we had some big names playing last week and we had some big names playing well and some other names dropping down the rankings this week and of course we've got the WTA and ATP finals coming up very soon as well it started to take shape let's go have a look at the results from last week because we had four tournaments two in the men's tour and two in the women's having a look at the results from last week we had four tournaments starting with the Jasmine Open and we had Elise Mertens defeating Kornay in the final 6-2-6 Love very dominant performance there in Astrava we had a huge upset with Kredjikova taking out Shviantec in a very close three set of 5-7-7-6-6-3 first time Shviantec lost in a final for a long long time and Kredjikova got a boost in the rankings for winning that tournament over on the men's tour we had the Tokyo Open with Fritz taking out Tiafo 7-6-7-6 and Fritz got a big reward after winning that event and at the Astana Open Novak Djokovic continued his way back on tour beating CityPass 6-3-6-4 to lift his second trophy in two weeks let's start with the WTA rankings now and despite all the players that played this week we didn't have any change Fjantec stayed at number 1, Jabura at number 2, Conservator 3, Podosa at 4, Savelenka at 5, Pogula at 6, Zachary at 7, Goff at 8, Halep at 9 and Garcia rounds out the top 10 for this week but next week and the week after we have some big tournaments on the WTA and a lot of the names that I just mentioned are playing also Indian Wells points are going to drop off so expect some of these names to drop down the rankings because remember Indian Wells was this time last year having with the rest of the finals now and it is starting to take shape and still only the two players qualified for now, Fjantec and Jabura Pogula is at number 3 this week very close behind the cutoff line for the qualification so expect her to qualify potentially next week Goff also there at number 4, Garcia at 5 but we had a change in the middle with Savelenka going down at number 7 and Kazakina going up to number 6 after Kazakina played last week and Savelenka didn't and this week though both those names are going to have to play well and another change with Zachary dropping down and Kudamatova jumping into the 8th spot Zachary down at 9 so Kudamatova with a very good week last week, Zachary at a very poor week she takes that 8th spot for now and benches at number 10 for this week and like I mentioned it is going to be very interesting next week because we've got a WTA 500 event most of the names that are playing for qualification are playing and then of course Vitalahara which is a 1000 event to finish the season so 6 spots up for grabs, 2 weeks left to the finals it's going to be a very fun finish having a look at the players that have gone up in the rankings this week outside the top 10 and Kredjakova she's gone up 9 spots at number 14 after winning the Estrava Open, Fjantec of course along the way and Mertens she won the Jasmine Open, she's gone up 6 spots at number 36 in the world so both players who won titles last week got a boost in the ranks and the players that dropped down in the rankings, Pleshkova, she dropped down 3 spots at number 22 and Rogers dropped down 2 spots at number 37 just because players below then played better and they got pushed down in the ranks having a look at the ATP rankings now and we had some changes to the ranks with Alcrest staying at number 1, Nadal staying at 2, Rude comes in at 3, Mehvedev still at 4 but a change in the middle with Stepanus, Sidzee pass going up to number 5 pushing Zverev down to number 6 and of course we haven't seen Zverev for a long time, we don't know if we'll see Zverev he is very likely to drop out of the top 10 completely if he doesn't play so we'll keep an eye on Zverev since he passed, did well this week, got up the ranks Novak stays at number 7 even though he won a tournament this week but we had a big change down the bottom of the top 10 with Taylor Fritz going up 3 spots at number 8 in the world kicking Nori down to number 10 2 spots lower than last week for Nori and her catch out of the top 10 completely with Rubelev sandwiched at number 9 in the middle so Fritz at 8, Rubelev at 9 Nori at 10 and Fritz winning his third trophy of the year and a top 10 ranking for the first time ever so Taylor Fritz had a very strong week and got rewarded taking a look at the ATP rankings now for the finals race and it's very very close we have 4 players qualified, Alcrest, Nadal, Rude and Sidzee pass they're all qualified for the finals but Novak Djokovic, he has now officially qualified he won Wimbledon and he can't mathematically drop out of the top 20 so that what means he's going to be playing in the finals officially qualified leaving 3 spots left for the ATP finals, Medvedev drops down one spot to number 6 because Djokovic qualified, Rubelev goes down to spot number 7 and Taylor Fritz he jumps up to number 8 due to his win in Tokyo, Aliasim goes down to number 9 her catch to number 10 and Zverev drops out of the top 10 completely and of course we don't know when we're seeing Zverev but don't expect him to be back in the top 10 unless he does miraculously come back but only 3 spots up for grabs and there's a lot of players that are looking for those spots we've still got guys like Nori, Sinner going for those spots and of course with only 3 spots left and only about 4 weeks left of the tour the next few weeks are going to be massive for guys like Rubelev, Medvedev, Sidzee pass, Aliasim and her catch, having a look at the players that have gone up in the rankings this week and big foe after making the final in Tokyo he's gone up to spots to number 17 which is a career high for him and Kwon, he made the semifinals of Tokyo and he's gone up 34 spots back in the top 100s, number 86 in the world the two guys who played well last week gets rewarded and going down in the rankings we had quarter, he went down 2 spots to 47 and Murray 2 spots to 48 both guys didn't play last week and they both dropped down the rankings because of it so there you have it, there are the rankings for this week and it is starting to heat up with the finals only around the corner and of course Indian Wells points are starting to drop off as well over the next couple of weeks so a couple of those top 10 players who might have played well at Indian Wells last year we're talking about Vadosa, Azarenka Nori for example they're all in trouble of dropping out of the top 10 or even further in the rankings if they don't play well but let me know down in the comments below who is going to qualify for the finals because that is what we're dealing with at the moment we've got 3 spots left for the men 6 left for the women and we've only got a few left weeks of the finals and we've only got a few weeks and left and we've only got a few weeks left until the finals it's all starting to get serious now let me know down in the comments below who's making the finals this year
