The Player of the week this week is Clara Tauson. She qualified for, and won the tournament in Lyon, defeating the upset player of the week (see below) and Paula Badosa among others on her way to the title. These wins earned Clara 54 ELO rating points, which would see her ranked at #64 if she were not so new to the tour.

This week's Upset player of the week is Ekaterina Alexandrova. The top seed at Lyon ended to losing her first round match to the player who went on to be this week's player of the week (see above). This loss meant that Ekaterina lost 15 ELO rating points, and she moves down 3 places in my rankings to #26.

Other strong performers relative to their rankings are Clara Burel and Viktorija Golubic.
