How do tennis world rankings work? 🎾 We broke down the ATP and WTA points system to show how players earn and defend their rankings, which ultimately determines tournament seeding. *Note:* The points examples in this video focus on the ATP for simplicity, but the WTA system follows similar principles. However, the WTA has slight differences in point distribution for non-winners and the number of qualifying tournaments. Most of the core mechanics remain the same. #sportsball #datastorytelling #tennis #atp #wta #australianopen #frenchopen #wimbledon #usopen
