British tennis player
Katie Boulter had an impressive outing at last week's
Canadian Open in Montreal, which saw her achieve a career high in the WTA rankings this week.
After coming through qualifying, Boulter reached the second round where she fell to sixth seed Coco Gauff. However, her impressive run saw her climb 12 spots to reach World No.60 for the first time.

The British star is currently in a relationship with Australian tennis ace
Alex De Minaur, who finished runner-up at the men's event in Toronto. The finish was enough to see the Aussie climb 6 places to reach World No.12, also a career-high ranking.
Upon hearing the news, Boulter took to social media to celebrate and playfully challenge De Minaur.
"I'm coming for you, Alex de Minaur (slowly)," Boulter wrote in an Instagram Story.
Both players have had remarkable breakthrough seasons in 2023, with De Minaur winning the biggest title of his career in March at the Acapulco Open (An ATP 500 event) whereas Boulter won her maiden WTA title at the 2023 Nottingham Open.
