This is episode 181 of Beyond Top 10 Tennis as we come LIVE to you from AM8 International with the latest Rankings & Results on the WTA and ATP tours with [NEW] insights shared. From Top 10 Rankings to the Results of the past 3 Week’s, Dr Berge reviews all key matches and key players from the last 3 Week’s on the WTA tour: China Open (China), Wuhan Open (China), Ningbo Open (China) & Japan Open (Japan); followed by this week’s tournament on the WTA tour (still in-action): Guangzhou Open (China) & Pan Pacific Open (Japan); PLUS the last 3 Week’s on the ATP tour: China Open (China), Shanghai Masters (China), Almaty Open (Kazakhstan), European Open (Belgium) & Nordic Open (Sweden); followed by this week’s tournament on the ATP tour (still in-action): Vienna Open (Austria) & Swiss Indoors (Switzerland).
This week’s episode covers the last 3 Week hiatus, shares ‘why’ and what has been going on behind the scenes! Dr Berge also shares ‘why’ some Top 10 players have come to a halt — no longer at their peak, and why others have the ‘fire power’ to keep going. The WTA Tour highlights the depth of player progressions v the ATP Tour that’s slightly behind, but how your WORK BOOK + BLACK BOOK shared this would be the case & how you can learn to avoid this pitfall. Dr Berge also discusses the WTA Finals & ATP Finals, how the 8% and the 8 Keys shape a player’s trajectory, and again — how you can learn to take these steps to edge closer towards a Top 10 ranking.
The Video for episode 181 is available on both Spotify & YouTube whilst remaining available wherever you enjoy listening. Key Players these last 3 Week’s include: Anisimova (W), Noskova (R/u), Gauff (W), Pegula (R/u), Rybakina (W), Alexandrova (R/u), Fernandez (W), Valentova (R/u), Sinner (W), Tien (R/u), Vacherot (W), Rinderkneck (R/u), Medvedev (W), Moutet (R/u), Auger-Aliassime (W), Lehecka (R/u), Ruud (W) & Humbert (R/u) – Congratulations to all!
