Following her run to this year's Roland Garros final, Coco Gauff has seen her position rise on the WTA Ranking table.
The 18-year old American moved up 10 spots in this week’s rankings, from No.23 to a career-high ranking of World No.13. Gauff advanced to the championship match in Paris without dropping a set and collects 1,300 rankings points.
Compatriot Jessica Pegula makes her Top 10 debut this week, checking in at World No.8 as she overtakes fellow American Danielle Collins (No.9) as the top-ranked American. Pegula, who won a career best 36 matches last season, already has reached 23 wins in 2022 following a clay-court campaign in which she finished as runner-up at Madrid and advanced to the quarterfinals at Roland Garros.
Furthermore, Pegula also climbs to a career high in doubles (at No.13) by reaching the championship match at Roland Garros, where she teamed up with Gauff. The pair lost to the French duo of Caroline Garcia and Kristina Mladenovic.

- If they find a good balance it does not really matter. Wild Cards are a nice tool to give players a chance but also to fill seats. Is that fair? That discussion will always be there. And discussion is also good for tennis 😁 I think it is good to have them.

- I heartily disagree with Stubbs here. I mean c'mon! The whole idea of giving out wildcards is to give new & up-coming players a chance at getting as much circuit match-practice under their belts as possible. And this is a HUGE must and opportunity for these new kids on the block. Why curtail opportunities for these newbies in favour of stalwart monopoly?? That just isn't fair. At least give these lesser known players a chance to become more familiar at playing in bigger tournaments & give them also a chance of getting the crowds behind these underdogs.
