Women's ELO Rankings 03/07/2017

Wimbledon is starting next week, and I shall be posting some predictions for the tournament tomorrow, but before then, let's look at how last week ended up. There was only 1 tournament this week, in Eastbourne.

This week's Big Gainer of the week is Heather Watson. She was given a wildcard in to the tournament, and after beating the upset player of the week (see below), she defeated Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova on her way to the semi finals, where she lost to Caroline Wozniacki. This run gave Heather 51 ELO rating points, and she moves up 40 places in my rankings to #54.

The Upset player of the week award this week goes to Dominika Cibulkova. She was the 4th seed at Eastbourne, but after getting a bye to round 2, she lost her 1st match to the player who went on to be the big gainer of the week (see above). This loss cost Dominka 14 ELO rating points, and she lose 1 place in my rankings to #18

Other strong performers relative to their rankings are Lara Arruabarrena and Tsvetana Pironkova.
