No changes to the top 33 places on the WTA rankings, which seems odd even for the week after a slam.

Lin Zhu up to 41, Alycia Parks up to 51, career highs for both.

Andreescu has passed Fernandez as the top ranked Canadian at 37.

Over the mid East swing, Sakkari is defending 350 points, Bencic and Rybakina 1 each. There will be a bit of a shakeup. Meanwhile someone who has won a grand total of 2 tournaments in her entire career is seeded 2.

Total tournaments, top ten:
Iga: 11
Aryna: 12
Jabeur: 3
Pegula: 2
Garcia: 11
Gauff: 3
Sakkari:1
Kasatkina: 6
Bencic: 8
Rybakina: 3

And I would say that a few of them will not get to 15 tournaments in their career, which used to be a one year haul for the likes of Martina and Chrissie.
Different times.

This reminds me of the 1982 F1 world championship. Keke Rosberg won it, with only 1 VICTORY the entire year. But nobody won more than 2 GP that year, and Rosberg won it based on a lot of consistency (plenty of 2nds).

This is a very important North American Spring for Iga. She's shown vulnerability. She has to put fear back into her opponents heads. As for who will come out on top I think you can write all of their names on sticks, toss them up, and pick them up at random.

That said I do think you've ranked Bencic too high and QZ isn't quite ready yet. She still panics at crucial parts of a match.JMHO

I expect a short weak period from Sabalenka. Nothing to do with her game. She'll have difficulty adjusting to her new status.

I don't know what that has to do with anything. Has Pegula not played well the last few years and had a good last 12 months? She hasn't won many titles, but rankings points aren't awarded based on titles. She earned her ranking in general and her seed here.

I remember something last year about reaching the QFs or better in all of the big Premier level + tournaments she entered except no-points Wimbledon

Here is what I posted last month:

Pegula's made the quarters at 4 of the last 5 Slams.
In the 8 WTA1000 last year she won 1, lost in final of 1, lost in semis of 2, lost in quarters of 2, lost in 3R of 2, and 2R of

Replacing Vika with Alexandrova, as Vika hasn't surfaced. So also Garcia with bhm

I really don't know what else to ask you, because every time I have asked you how would you change the rankings, you have said you don't know.
Change them so they would mean something to you.

Pegula did not go and buy her ranking points at the supermarket. If it were that easy, she would be #1; her dad would buy her the ranking.

And the rankings say a lot of things. For example: Iga is 4,000 points over Sabalenka. Which tells you that during the last year, she has been that much better.
OVER THE LAST YEAR. Not the last few weeks.

Samsonova at 4 has to be a joke, and Alexandrova might consider winning a title before you put her in the top 10
