The last Grand Slam of the year, the US Open, finished this week. Below the jump, I highlight who did well, who didn't, and an update to my rankings.

The Player of the week award this week goes to Naomi Osaka. The 20th seed at New York, she won the tournament, defeating Aryna Sabalenka, Madison Keys and Serena Williams in the final. This title gave Naomi 68 ELO rating points, and she gains 11 places in my rankings to #15

This week's Upset player of the week is Simona Halep. She was the top seed at the Grand Slam, but unexpectedly lost her 1st round match. This loss meant that Simona lost 18 ELO rating points, but she stays as the ELO #1, 6 points above the #2 player.

Other strong performers relative to their rankings are Kaia Kanepi, Marketa Vondrousova, Rebecca Peterson, Tatjana Maria and Carina Witthoft.
