WTA Rankings Update: Linda Noskova leads rises after Berlin title, joined by Alexandra Eala as Aryna Sabalenka remains World No.1
WTA
The WTA Rankings have been updated after the latest run of tournaments which featured Berlin and Nottingham mainly and it was Czechia which dominated the ranking changes.
Linda Noskova powered past Jessica Pegula in the final of Nottingham winning her second title and her first on grass. She reached her first WTA 1000 final last October, but has joined another accolade as she manages to make her top 10 debut as a result. She climbs three spots from World No.13 to World No.10.
Noskova becomes the 11th Czech woman to break the top 10 in ranking history and the second following Victoria Mboko. But not only that but other Czech players have risen.
Marie Bouzkova won Nottingham seeing off Emma Navarro 7-6, 4-6, 6-2 in nearly three hours. The longest tour level final of the year so far after the second longest was also including Bouzkova in Bogota.
Eala rises
She rises five places from World No.27 to World No.22, her previous peak being World No.24 in 2022 and also in April. Nikola Bartunkova also made her mark seeing off Diana Shnaider and Elise Mertens. She even led 6-2, 4-0 over Sabalenka before a heartbreaking loss. But she rose to World No.46 making her top 50 debut. This time last year, she was ranked World No.446.
Darja Vidmanova won in Figueira de Foz and jumps to World No.90 while Oleksandra Oliynykova also rises up two spots to World No.49 despite not playing and makes her top 50 debut.
Alexandra Eala also returns to top 30 reaching the semi-finals. While Diane Parry and Zeynep Sonmez hit new career highs of World No.47 and World No.54.
Aryna Sabalenka continues as World No.1 but faces an Elena Rybakina sized fight coming up shortly to keep hold of it.
