WTA Ranking Update: Sabalenka continues World No.1 reign as Pavlyuchenkova, Shnaider and Fruhvirtova rise

Albeit with a tournament taking place right now, the WTA Ranking has been updated at the start of the latest week as Aryna Sabalenka really begins her reign as World No.1.

Albeit Sabalenka hasn't struck a ball that counts towards the current ranking since her US Open final loss, she has 9,266 in top spot and maintains a 1,071 point gap over Swiatek.

The rest of the top 10 remains unchanged with Jessica Pegula and Ons Jabeur not benefitting from a run to the final in Tokyo and for the latter winning Ningbo.

But Veronika Kudermetova did rise going up three places to 16th after winning her third career title in Tokyo. Mayar Sherif who lost the champion points she accrued from Parma last season tumbled down to 50th. While Mirra Andreeva returns to the top 60 after qualifying for the main draw at the China Open.

Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, Diana Shnaider and Linda Fruhvirtova are the biggest movers in the top 100 going up to 62nd for the former. Shnaider is just below, while Fruhvirtova climbed 19 spots to re-enter the top 100.
