 After a massive week on the ATP and WTA with the Dubai championships happening on the WTA, a 1000 event on the WTA, a lot of points were up for grabs and a lot of changes happened, not just to the main rankings, but we did have a lot of changes to the finals race, especially on the WTA, but let's go talk about the past winners and the players that had won over the last couple of days. So in the ATP we had three tournaments, started with the Rio Open, Cam Norrie, beating Carlos Alcrest, getting his revenge over last week's loss, 5-7-6-4-7-5, lifting the biggest trophy he's lifted since Indian Wells back in 2021, her catch, he won in Marseille 6-3-7-6, defeating Bonzi in that final and in Doha, it was Daniel Mehvedev taking out Andy Murray 6-4-6-4 to lift his second trophy in two weeks. On the WTA, we had two tournaments with the Dubai championships, a 1000 event, and 6-4-6-2, Krijikovac taking Ash Viontek in a big upset in that final and she got a huge boost in the rankings. And over at the Marietta Open in Mexico, we had Georgie taking out Peterson in the final, 7-6-1-6-6-2 to lift another WTA trophy. Alright, let's go over and look at the players that have gone up and down in the rankings outside of the top 10. And Morales, he goes up 21 spots to a career high number 42 after another very successful week on the clay in Rio. And Andy Murray, he goes up 18 spots at number 52 after making the final in Doha, so he's climbing back into that top 50. And on the WTA it was Krijikovac going up 14 spots to number 16 after winning in Dubai. So some big changes to the rankings due to some big results from some key players. Some of the players that have gone down in the rankings over the last week, Mackenzie McDonald, he's gone down 13 spots at number 62 in the world after dropping points from this time last year. Osta Panko also dropping a lot of points after not doing so well in Dubai this year, going down 6 spots at number 26 in the world. And Sloane Stevens dropping down 10 spots at 51 in the world after failing to defend points from this time last year as well. So some big drops in the ranking after a lot of points disappeared from some players' rankings. Alright, let's start with the WTA rankings this week and we had no change to the WTA top 10. Fiontech stays at number 1, Sabalenka at number 2, Pagula at number 3, Drabers stays at 4. Just behind her is Garcia at number 5 who is actually playing this week. There might be a change there eventually. Goff comes in at number 6, Sakari at 7 with Kazakina just behind her at 8. Benchage very close behind at number 9 and Rabakina rounds out the top 10 for this week. Over to the WTA finals race now and things are starting to look very interesting with Sabalenka staying on top of the race and Rabakina coming in second. But Egas Fiontech getting into that top 3 now, 4 spots higher than last week after her final in Dubai pushing Benchage down to number 4 and Pagula down to number 5 and Krajikova 18 spots higher than last week up to the top 6. After winning in Dubai pushing Azarenka down to number 7, Goff comes up 2 spots to number 8 after having a good run to the semis in Dubai. Lynette drops down 3 spots to number 9 and Pushkova gets back into the top 10 4 spots higher than last week with Garcia and Kudomitoba losing their top 10 spots all together in the race of the finals. So the two players that made a good run in Dubai getting massive boost in the rankings and it started to take some shape now and we're seeing a lot of familiar names in that top 8. Over to the men's rankings now and a little bit of a change here but starting at the top, Novak Djokovic stays at world number 1 with Elkres only 200 points behind at number 2. Since he pass comes in at 3, Rude comes in at 4. Taylor Fritz getting into the top 5 for the first time and it's been a long time since an American has been in the top 5 of the ATP. 2 spots higher than last week pushing Rublev down to number 6. Mehvedev goes up 1 spots to number 7 and Rafa's down 2 spots to number 8 because he's losing all the points from Acapulco from last year. So Rafa is very very much in danger of falling out of the top 10 completely for the first time since 2005. Felix Ozealia seen at number 9 and Holgaruna rounds at the top 10 for this week but like I said Rafa, we don't know when he's coming back but his ranking in the top 10 is in big jeopardy. Over to the race to the finals now and things are starting to take shape like on the women's side, Djokovic stays at 1 with since he passed at 2 but Kam Nori after winning his biggest clay court trophy he goes up 5 spots to number 3 in the race to the finals and Mehvedev also going up 3 spots to number 4 after winning in Doha so some players there getting some big boosts to their race to the finals point. Pushing Hashinov down to number 5, Paul to number 6, Cine goes down to number 7 and Fritz goes down to number 8 because of those two guys. Hercatch also gets back into that top 10 13 spots higher than last week because he won in Marseille and Elkraz goes up 25 spots to round out the top 10 for the race to the finals after making to the final of Rio. So there you have it, that is the rankings for another week some big changes due to that WTA 1000 event in Dubai but we also have massive tournaments this week on the ATP. Acapulco Dubai both worth 500 points each and that's a lot of points for the next week but let me know down in the comments below what's the biggest shock for you in the rankings is it the fact that maybe Rafa is on the brink of losing that top 10 ranking and that is very very scary considering that he hasn't been out of the top 10 since he was a teenager 18, 19 years ago it's been a long long time since he's dropped out but he might drop out if he doesn't play Indian Wells let me know down in the comments below what do you reckon about the rankings this week?
