How the ranking works

The ATP (men) and the WTA (women) publish a weekly ranking. The lower the number, the better (#1 is the best in the world).

What a "rise" actually means

If the site says someone "rises from #40 to #33", that is only the official position for that week — it does not explain injury, form or a "crisis". We publish the number; the cause only appears when there is an official statement.
