The WTA ranking have been updated with
Jessica Pegula strengthening her position as world No. 3 following her win at the National Bank
Canadian Open (Omnium Banque Nationale) in Montreal, as runner-up
Liudmila Samsonova moves closer to the top 10.
American No. 1 Pegula has extended her time as world No. 3, building up a lead over No. 4
Elena Rybakina, with the 900 points she received for winning the WTA 1000 event in Canada putting her at 6030.
Meanwhile, after going out in the semi-final of the tournament, Rybakina stays put for now with 5755 points.
Samsonova moves up toward top 10
Fellow Canadian Open finalist Samsonova has moved up six places from eighteenth to twelfth, with 2745 points.
This puts her just under 100 points behind No. 11 Barbora Krejcikova at 2840, but she is still quite a way away from No. 10 Marketa Vondrousova, who has 3211 points.
Elsewhere, No. 1 Swiatek has kept the top spot for a 72nd consecutive week. There was a chance at the Canadian Open for No. 2
Aryna Sabalenka to overtake her for the first time in her career, but this was dependent on the Polish player not reaching the quarter-finals which she did.
Further down the rankings,
Bianca Andreescu has dropped out of the top 50 after falling 10 places since her disappointing run on home soil this week. Meanwhile,
Katie Boulter broke into the top 60 for the first time and Greet Minnen re-entered the top 100.
