Angelique Kerber's metamorphosis from good to dominant saw the 28-year-old German win her second Grand Slam title of 2016 at the U.S. Open and rip the No. 1 ranking away from Serena Williams.

Defeating ascending star Karolina Pliskova 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 in a thrilling final, Kerber proved she wasn't a one-hit wonder but a force with real staying power. The new queen of women's tennis, it's remarkable how she's transformed her game and mentality in such a short period of time. 

While Pliskova's stay in New York ended in heartbreak, she'll rise to a new career-high ranking because of her impressive run. At 24, her future looks positively radiant.

For Williams, the vacating of her throne and inability to break two prestigious records register as disappointments for the aging American. But she won't drop far on our list. Once she gets back to 100 percent physically, expect Williams to return with a vengeance and resume her quest for history.

Which other players deserve to be in the top 10?

The following slides will take into consideration both current and projected rankings, with emphasis given to results at the U.S. Open. Previous results this season will also be examined as the clock ticks toward the start of the WTA Finals in Singapore.
