Naomi Osaka was ranked outside the top 10 before the start of the tournament, so the Women's numbers will change after the final.
The winners for the Men were the 21-50 ranked players, thanks to the losing semifinalists Stefanos Tsitsipas and Lucas Pouille, while the losers were the 51-100 group, despite a good performance from Frances Tiafoe. For the Women, the best performers were the top 10 group with finalist Petra Kvitova and Karolina Pliskova performing strongly, on the other hand, the 101-150 group did badly here, with none of them making it to round 3.
Now, my final ELO ratings and estimated percentage chances of winning:

My numbers have 🇪🇸 Rafael Nadal as a 52% favourite over 🇷🇸 Novak Djokovic to win the #AusOpen title. Do you think it should be higher, lower, or have I got it right?— Tennis ELO Rankings (@tennis_elo) January 25, 2019
