2018 Wimbledon Semi Finals Update

The quarter finals of Wimbledon is complete, so let's take a look at how the results impacted my rankings of the players still in the tournament.

The current leaders in the Player of the tournament awards are Kevin Anderson (+45) and Evgeniya Rodina (+37). Rodina will win the award if Serena Williams defeats Angelique Kerber in the final otherwise the winner of the title gets the award. The winner of Anderson vs John Isner will win the award.

View my week 2 predictions for the Men and the Women here, but before the latest rankings, some stats I calculated for the top 150 players:

Men's Rank± ELO

Women's Rank± ELO
