Sabalenka Defends, Alcaraz downs Sinner, Anisimova repeats, the Top 3 remain Strong & Djokovic back into the Top 5, this is your Wrap for Week of 8 September

This is episode 178 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 Week, Dr Berge reviews all ⁠⁠⁠key⁠⁠⁠ matches and ⁠⁠⁠key⁠⁠⁠ players from the last week on the WTA tour: 2025 US Open Championships (U.S); followed by this week’s tournament on the WTA tour (still in-action): SP Open (Brazil) & Guadalajara Open (Mexico); PLUS the last week on the ATP tour: 2025 US Open Championships (U.S); followed by this week’s tournament on the ATP tour (still in-action): Davis Cup 2nd Round Qualifiers.

This week’s episode zeroes in on the 2025 US Open and your Champions – how Anisimova was able to beat Switatek, Osaka over Gauff, and Sabalenka maintain her baseline that’s above all the Top 3; how Alcaraz was able to lift against Djokovic and then Sinner, Auger-Alissame showed how to take advantage of Sinner’s game; Pegula’s form almost overriding Sabalenka and Osaka’s new found form almost stopping Anisimova from achieving Paolini’s feat of 2024. It’s a big episode with WORK BOOK⁠ + ⁠BLACK BOOK⁠ insights, focused on the 8%⁠ and the ⁠8⁠ ⁠Keys⁠ with Dr Berge’s data modelling at a minimum of 75% or higher – including a 100% rate of success!
