WTA Rankings Update: Rises for Badosa, Gauff, Keys and more as Barty holds number one

An interesting tennis week down under brought us some changes on the WTA Rankings. On top, it's still Ashleigh Barty at number one and the Australian will need a strong event hoping to keep that number one spot. There are ways to lose that but we will know in two weeks. Some other changes in the top 10 include Paula Badosa rising to number 6 as Sakkari dropped down to 8.

Coco Gauff is up to number 16 skipping over Raducanu who is now 18th. Madison Keys won a trophy in Adelaide and she jumped 36 spots to number 51 while Serena Williams continued her slide, currently ranked number 59.
