The top eight have been confirmed Let's go starting with the past results because last week we had some big wins and some key players So let's start with the ATP from last week We had two tournaments last week starting with the St. Petersburg open where Marin Chilich got the win over Taylor Fritz 7, 6, 4, 6, 6, 4 Chilich has been in some good form the last couple of weeks and he gets rewarded with a trophy and the Vienna open An ATP 500 event, Sashas Varev getting the win over T-Arf-O, 7, 5, 6, 4 and Varev looking very good in that final as well So maybe a play to watch out for come the ATB finals in a couple of weeks time Having a look at the results for the women last week and we had the Kormaya ladies open with Vekic Defeated 1,7662 and a good comeback for Vekic because she was recovering from knee surgery only six months ago So really good comeback for her and the big one the Transylvania open Contribute getting the win over Halep 6, 2, 6, 3 qualifying for the WTA finals She had to win to qualify and she did didn't even drop a set all week She was absolutely unbelievable and she officially is into the WTA finals as we'll find out in a second All right, let's start with the ATP rankings this week No big changes to the main top 10 as we get Djokovic staying at number one, Medvedev at 2, City Pass at 3 Varev at 4 despite winning the Vienna Open, Raffer at 5, Rubelev at 6, Baratini at 7 Kasparud stays at number 8 but Dominik team he has dropped three spots out of the top 10 The first time in a long time he drops down to number 12 making way for Yannick Sinner made the semi-finals of Vienna He goes up two spots to a career high ranking number 9 in the world and a top 10 debut for him And who be her catch he stays at number 10 rounding out the top 10 for this week Heading over to the race to Turin now and we've still got two spots up for grabs with that four players in the running To get those last couple of spots so this week will be crucial in Paris Djokovic he still stays at number one with Medvedev at 2, City Pass at 3 It's Varev at 4 very close behind City Pass so there could be a change there come this time next week Rubelev is at number 5, Baratini, he's at number 6, Kasparud at number 7 He is just on the verge of qualifying but Yannick Sinner with a big week last week He's gone up one spot to number 8 pushing who be her catch who had a very poor week last week down to number 9 So the rankings were to stop right now Sinner would qualify and her catch would just miss out and Cam Norrie He is at number 10 in the rankings and the person who has the most successful week in Paris from those four players Could be the one who qualifies so a lot on the line this week in Paris only two spots up for grabs Let's go have a look at the players that have gone up in the rankings this week because it's some good results last week Some players got rewarded Alcarez. He's at a career high number 35 in the world and Tiafoe after a very good week last week He goes up to 41 in the world, which is eight spots higher than last week So Francis Tiafoe starting to rise up the rankings again with some good results players that have gone down in the rankings this week Rigor Dimitrov, he's gone out eight spots number 30 in the world despite having a pretty decent couple of weeks Especially at Indian Wells had some really good wins there He's gone down to 30 in the world and Kevin Anderson He's gone down to 76 in the world Which is 15 spots lower than last week lost a lot of points from Vienna a couple of years ago Which fell off this week.

So good to see French open champions slowly going up the rankings and remember She's already qualified for the WTA finals might be a dark horse. Watch out for her. Muguru is at number five But Svetalina she has dropped down eight spots after failing to qualify for the WTA final She has dropped a lot of points from two years ago Remember she got to the final a couple of years ago. She dropped all those points goes down eight spots making way for a lot Of players. Sarkari, she goes up number six.

They're set They're absolutely set and it's gonna be interesting to see who wins that event because for me if Barty was playing She'd be the clear favorite, but with no Barty. Who's the favorite? Let me know down in the comments below. Who's gonna win the WTA finals now that they're set? I have no idea. Consummate's in form. We all know that Kredje Kover might be a smoky. She's pretty good on hardcore surfaces So maybe her but I don't know it could be anyone to be honest Maybe Sarkarie could do it. Maybe maybe Jorbaugh comes into the last moment steals it Who knows but let me know down in the comments below who you think's gonna win the WTA finals now that the finals are set So the WTA finals they are locked in ATB finals after this week might be locked in too
