WTA Rankings Update: Barty still ahead of the pack after Olympics

Ashleigh Barty is still leading the pack after the Olympic Games with Osaka and Sabalenka as numbers 2 and 3.

The Olympic Games in Tokyo came and went and the majority of the top of the tennis world attended the event. That resulted in no changes in the top 10 with the only change in the top 20 Jennifer Brady skipping over Victoria Azarenka. Barty is still ahead of Osaka and Sabalenka and the Australian won a medal for her country in a solid showing at the Games.

There haven't been many WTA events going on during the Olympics which means changes in the rankings are rather minor ones. Marta Kostyuk jumped 4 spots to reach number 58 which is a new career-high for the Ukrainian. Camila Giorgi had an amazing showing in Tokyo yet she dropped 10 spots on the rankings to number 71.

Saisai Zheng is another big loser as the Chinese player dropped 24 spots to number 76. Anna Karolina Schmiedlova had a great week in Belgrade playing at the 125K WTA event and the Slovakian player is back into the top 100 at number 99. Check out the full rankings below.
