In this paper we summarize the status of Top Quark Physics and of
searches for the Standard Model Higgs at the Tevatron.  Results from both the
CDF and D0 experiments are discussed and the prospects for the upcoming Run 2,
in the year 2000, are outlined.  Much work has been performed on these topics
and due to the nature of these proceedings only a brief explanation can be
offered here.  For more details the reader should turn to the excellent
