Sabalenka cuts Swiatek's lead, new career high for Rybakina and Trevisan and rises for Garcia, Gauff and Sakkari in updated WTA Rankings

Aryna Sabalenka has decreased the lead of Iga Swiatek in the latest WTA Rankings with new career highs for Elena Rybakina and Martina Trevisan among others,

It was a very interesting fortnight in Madrid and newly crowned champion Aryna Sabalenka has reduced the lead of Iga Swiatek quite a bit. The Polish player is now in striking distance following a really strong start to the year by Sabalenka and we're going to have a very interesting month of May.

Some other players have made moves as well with Garcia moving up to number four and Gauff moving up to number five. Last year's champion Ons Jabeur tumbled down to number 7 after an unfortunate spell with injuries that are keeping her away from playing her best tennis right now.

Several players also secured new career-high rankings and they are Rybakina at 6, Trevisan at 18, Zheng at 21, Sherif at 43, Parks at 39, McNally at 62, Bucsa at 66, Masarova at 67 and Navarro at 83. Check out the rankings below.
