The
WTA Rankings have been updated following the results of the
Cincinnati Open, with
Coco Gauff marking her 50th week as a top-10-ranked player and
Karolina Muchova making her top-10 debut.
19-year-old Gauff has just been celebrating her first WTA 1000 title at the Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati, and she can now mark another major milestone as she reaches her 50th week in the top 10. The American has also moved up one place to No. 6, sitting 236 points behind No. 5 Ons Jabeur.
Meanwhile,
Maria Sakkari marks her 100th week in the top 10, currently staying at No. 8. This is also world No. 7 Caroline Garcia's 50th consecutive week among the 10 strongest players, but this is not the first time she has been this high in the rankings, having first entered the top 10 in 2017.
Muchova makes top 10 debut
Meanwhile, Muchova has jumped up from No. 17 to No. 10 following her deep run to the final of the Cincinnati Open. This is her career-best ranking, and she replaces her compatriot
Marketa Vondrousova who moves up to ninth as their fellow Czech player
Petra Kvitova drops two places to eleventh.
Up at the very top,
Iga Swiatek enters her 73rd week as world No. 1, now sitting 1,209 points ahead of No. 2
Aryna Sabalenka. Both have ranking points to defend at the
US Open.
The biggest rise in the top 100 this week was Cristina Bucsa, who rose 14 places to No. 70, while
Shuai Zhang saw the biggest drop, falling 21 places down to No. 69.
