View my pre-tournament predictions for the Men and the Women here. Who's doing better so far, the top players, or the lower ranked players? Some stats I calculated for the top 150 players:

Rank± Men± Wmn
1-1061-18
11-203133
21-503911
51-100-6912
101-150-1226

Both Men's finalists are top 10 players, so those number won't change, but the Women's finalists are top 10 and 11-20, so those number will change after the final.
