WTA Rankings Update: Kasatkina denies Gauff a top 10 debut with new career-high

Daria Kasatkina won the Silicon Valley Classic in San Jose and the Russian debuted a new career-high ranking of number 9 denying Coco Gauff a top 10 debut in the process.

The only way Coco Gauff would not be in the top 10 today was if Kasatkina won the San Jose event. That is exactly what happened as the Russian defeated Rogers in the final to lift the trophy and secure a new career high. That career high is number 9 as Ksaatkina returned to the top 10 for the first time since 2019.

Gauff remains ranked 11th but eventually, she will make her top 10 debut but it will happen next Monday at the earliest. Iga Swiatek is still on top with Paula Badosa skipping over Maria Sakkari for number 3. The biggest mover was Liudmila Samsonova as the Russian moved up 18 spots to number 42. Rogers moved up 15 spots to number 30.

Some other players moved up as well and several achieved a new career high as well. They are in order Kasatkina at 9, Fernandez at 13, Haddad Maia at 24, Rogers at 30, Kalinskaya at 69, Wang at 76, Udvardy at 80, Noskova at 90, Tomova at 99. Check out the full rankings below.
