Women's ELO Rankings 22/10/2018

The WTA Finals starts today, but there were still 2 tournaments on this week in Moscow and Luxembourg, so let's take a look at how they affected my ratings.

This week's Player of the week is Ons Jabeur. She qualified for Moscow, and made it to the final, defeating Sloane Stephens, Anett Kontaveit and Anastasija Sevastova before losing to Daria Kasatkina. These wins gave Ons 58 ELO rating points, gaining 49 places in my rankings to #81.

This week's Upset player of the week is Karolina Pliskova. Also at Moscow, she was the 2nd seed, but after a bye to round 2, she lost her opening match to Vera Zvonareva. This loss cost Karolina 17 ELO rating points, falling 2 places in my rankings to #7.

Other strong performers relative to their rankings are Belinda Bencic, Dayana Yastremska and Eugenie Bouchard.
