The winners for the Men were the top 10 players, thanks to Rafael Nadal, Dominic Thiem and Kei Nishikori, while the losers were the 101-150 group, despite a good performance from Jordan Thompson. For the Women, the best performers were the 21-50 group with finalist Marketa Vondrousova and Amanda Anisimova performing strongly, on the other hand, the top 10 group did badly here, with Ashleigh Barty the only player in the top 10 to gain more than a few ELO this tournament.
The Women's numbers will change after the final, as Ashleigh Barty is in the top 10 while Marketa Vondrousova is in the 21-50 group. The Men's numbers will stay the same as both finalists are in the top 10.
Now, my final ELO ratings and estimated percentage chances of winning:

My numbers have 🇪🇸 Rafael Nadal as a 72% favourite to win the #RG19 title over 🇦🇹 Dominic Thiem. Should it be higher, lower, or have I got it right?— Tennis ELO Rankings (@tennis_elo) June 8, 2019
