Maria Sakkari failed to win the Ostrava Open but the Greek entered the top 10 for the first time,
Iga Swiatek moved up to 4 as Barty still leads the pack at No. 1.
A very good week of tennis happened around the world with many of the world's best competing at the Ostrava Open. We saw Anett Kontaveit be crowned the champion moving her up 7 spots to number 23. Maria Sakkari lost that final but she gained some spots on the rankings breaking into the top 10 for the first time in her career.
Ashleigh Barty still leads everyone at No 1 with Sabalenka and Pliskova trailing.
Iga Swiatek reached the Ostrava Open semi-final and she jumped two spots to a new career-high ranking of 4 as Svitolina dropped back to 6. There has been some negative movement as well. Allison Riske slid down 18 spots to number 50 almost dropping out of the top 50 after a very long time. Yastremska also dropped down 19 spots to number 72 as did Van Uytvanch who dropped 34 spots to 89.
Overall 15 players had a new career-high this week and they are Swiatek at 4, Sakkari at 10, Jabeur at 16, Zidansek at 32, Podoroska at 35, Teichmann at 38, Samsonova at 42, Martincova at 53, Kalinina at 60, Paolini at 61, Parrizas at 72, Sherif at 73, Burel at 80, Liu at 92 and Ruse at 98.
