Cameron Norrie’s Ranking Rises

Ranking

The honor of mover of the week goes to: Cameron Norrie. The Brit made it to his first ATP World Tour final over the past weekend in Auckland. He was hoping to take this form deep in the draw of the Australian Open; however, he expended too much energy to get to the final and had nothing left in his tank in the first round. Norrie lost to American, Taylor Fritz, in straight sets (3-6, 6-7(6), 2-6). The irony, he defeated Fritz in Auckland on his way to the final. Despite this minor set-back, Norrie will look to build on this form as the season progresses.

PLAYER RANKING CHANGE CURRENT RANK
Cameron Norrie (GBR) UP  25 68

ATP: there were no changes in the top ten members (they all maintained their exact positions from the previous week). Novak Djokovic continues to reign as the number one ranked male player.

WTA: the top ten members remained the same; however, there were a few minor changes in positions. Elina Svitolina and Karolina Pliskova both moved down one spot to #7 and #8 respectively. Petra Kvitova moved up two spots to #6.

SPECIAL MENTION: twenty year old American Sofia Kenin (prefers being called Sonia) captured her first singles title on the WTA this past weekend; she hopes that she will be able to take this form deep in the draw of the first major.
