 So with the Madrid Open done and dusted, one of the biggest tournaments on the ATP WTA claycore calendar, and a little bit of extra rounds to play this year because of course it was an extended draw. We had some return champions getting the wins here and also some changes in the rankings but let's go have a look at who won last week. So only the two events last week starting with the WTA, of course, at the Madrid Open. It was Sabalenka getting her revenge over Shriyantek from losing in Stuttgart. 6-3-3-6-6-3 she wins her second Madrid Open title. And on the men's side, Elkraz also winning his second Madrid title, 6-4-3-6-6-3 against Strouf, who was a lucky loser making a final at this stage which is a little bit of history and Elkraz closes the gap on Djokovic at number one so some big wins for the world number twos this week. Alright, let's have a look at the players outside the top 10 that went up in the rankings this week. Starting with Strouf, he is now at a career high number 28 in the world, 37 spots higher than last week after that amazing run in Madrid. Also, Andy Murray, he's gone up 10 spots at number 42 after playing and winning a Challenger event this week so wasn't all the players in Madrid getting a boost? And Sharif, making it to the quarter-finals of this event, she goes up 16 spots to a career high number 43 in the world. So some players have played well in Madrid and also in the Challenger events during the second week of Madrid going up in the ranks. Players that went down in the rankings this week. Alexander Zverev, he's gone outside the top 20 now at number 22, six spots lower than last week after failing to make the final again in Madrid after what happened last year. He actually lost the same guy in Elkraz this week. So he's dropped down the ranks. Also, Alexandrova, she's gone to number 22 on the WTA rankings, five spots lower than last week. Again, losing points from last year's tournament after having a good run there. And Taikman, she's gone down 28 spots, number 58 in the world. Again, losing a lot of points from making the Madrid semifinals last year. So some players there that had a really good 2022 Madrid and able to keep their rankings high. All right, let's start with the WTA rankings now and a few changes, but no change at the top, which Fionte X staying at one, Sabalinga staying at two, Pagula at three, but Jabir unfortunately unable to play in Madrid. After the injury she sustained over in Stuttgart, she drops down three spots, losing a thousand points from last year's title down to number seven, allowing Garcia to go up to number four, Goff to number five, and Rabakena goes up to a career high number six. And another little change at the bottom of the rankings with Sacri going up to number eight in the world after making the semifinals in Madrid, pushing Kazakinda down to number nine and Caviteva, still hanging onto that top 10 spot for now. And of course, with Rome coming up next week, a lot of these players have a lot of the points to defend, including Fiontex, of course, the defending champion of Rome, and Jabir also has a final that she has to defend from last year. So we could see some more changes to the top 10 before the French Open starts. Looking at the race of the finals now and things are starting to take shape, Sabalinga still at number one though, almost 5,000 points, which is a ridiculous amount of points at this stage of the season. Rabakena still at number two, which Fiontex at three, Pagula at four, Benchanted at five, and a little bit of a change in the middle with Krijikovic going up to number six, pushing Caviteva down to number seven, Goff stays at eight, and Maria Sacri. She goes up seven spots into the top 10 of the race of the finals for the first time this year, up to number nine, pushing Azarenka down to number 10, and Lynette gets pushed out of the top 10 completely. So the top of the race of the finals looks pretty solid, but for those players sort of five and below, if you have a good week in one of these big tournaments, get a lot of points, you could really improve your chances. Over to the men's rankings now, and not too many changes, with Djokovic staying at number one, five points ahead of Elkras at number two, so Rome's going to be very interesting. A battle for number one happening over the next couple of weeks. Mervitav stays at number three with Rude at number four, just ahead of Sidney Pass at number five, Rubelev at six, with Rune at seven, Sinner's at number eight, but Felix O'Jallis seemed he drops down to number 10, making way for Fritz to go up to number nine. The only change in the top 10, that's because FA lost all his points, but he gained last year, so not too many changes there to the top 10 for the men, but of course, there is a big change potentially of the top of the rankings next week ahead of the French Open, remember. After Rome, the rankings and the seedings for the French Open will be locked, so a lot of these guys are playing for top four. Now there's a battle between Sidney Pass and Rude in the middle there, and of course that number one ranking and number one seeding at the French Open at stake. Going over to the race of the finals now, and we have a change at the top with Carlos Elkras, leapfrogging Djokovic and Medvedev to go up to number one in the race of the finals. 100 points ahead of Medvedev, he pushes down to number two, and Djokovic gets pushed down to number three, so those three guys locked up at the top, and a little bit of a change in the middle too with Sidney Pass going up one spot, pushing Sinner down to number five, so four and five changed their rankings. Very close behind at number six is Rublev with Fritz at number seven, and some more changes down the bottom with Hashinov going up to number eight after making it to the quarter-finals of Madrid, pushing Rune down to number nine. Paul comes back into the top 10 after getting to a challenger final last week, pushing Nori down to number 11 outside the top 10, so a few changes this week on the race of the finals as they were for the ladies, and again with Rome next week with a lot of points, and it takes one week to get into this top eight if you have a successful run in Rome next week, so interested to see how this plays out. So there you have it, after a huge two weeks of Madrid, we're finally done, but we're not done yet because we still have two more weeks, huge weeks with a thousand points on the line for the Rome winners, and the race of the finals is starting to heat up as well. Sabalenko on 5,000 points almost already, which is incredible. She's pretty much in the WTA finals at this stage. I think she's well and truly going to be there, but we're going to have a change maybe at the top of the rankings for the men with Djokovic only five points ahead of Elkras. Let me know down in the comments below. What do you think is going to happen in Rome? Do you think we're going to get a change to the rankings at the top of the men's in Rome? What do you think that we're going to maybe keep Djokovic at number one? He's going to have to defend the title, and I think Elkras has to pull out of Rome. That's the only chance he has, maybe, if the math plays out, but some massive changes on the cards over the next couple of weeks ahead of the French Open. And remember, seedings are locked. After Rome, the French Open seedings will be locked.
