I think I agree this time. At least 3 Slams each and then we can talk.

Medvedev up to #4 if he wins. Sinner already back to career high #9, but will rise to #6 if he wins tomorrow. Alcaraz has lost his #1 ranking to Djokovic.

On the women's side Rybakina currently #7 and will rise another spot with a title. Kvitova currently #11 and will rise one more spot past Bencic if she wins the title.

WTA live race:

Sabalenka
Rybakina
Pegula
Swiatek
Krejcikova

ATP live race

Medvedev
Djokovic
Alcaraz
Sinner
Tsitsipas

I am surprised that Rybakina will "only" reach #6 with the win. I know, her Wimby points are zero, and that hurts, but I gather it shows how poorly she played, for a few tournaments, after that win.
If she wins, though, I will say she has had the most successful first quarter of them all. And we will have a real race for #1.

And with the win Kvitova moves into the #5 spot in the WTA live race.

a triumph for the ranking system.. the top 4 seeds, the highest ranked 4 players, are in the semis of Charleston! what happens next may be different, but still a good result for the ranking system.

PS: i would bet on the lowest ranked of the 4, though, to win the title! but not very high confidence level..

In Bogota, 2 of the top 4 (#1 lost in 1R). So, a reasonable tool for prediction. Not infallible, just reasonable.

Agreed--two of the WTA "Big 3" have yet to prove they can play elite level tennis for more than a couple of months at a time.

Maybe rankings are less meaningful in smaller tournaments..the players are not that great anyway even if they are seeded high..

Most of the players in Bogota were ranked below 100. The only known ones were still below that line: Podoroska, Bouchard, SST. That Mertens did not even make it out of the first round may be some indication of where her game is.
Then again, the altitude makes if hard to play here for people that have been bred at lower elevations.

He is within range of USA's #1, a few hundred points behind Fritz. Not a shabby accomplishment.

To the many people who said Sakkari was a joke being in the Top 10 last season

Trouble is, Sakkari doesn't go further...
