WTA Rankings: Mirra Andreeva becomes first 17-year-old to enter Top 10 since 2007
Mirra Andreeva made her Top 10 debut in the latest WTA Rankings released on Monday after clinching the biggest title of her fledgling career last week.
Andreeva defeated Denmark’s Clara Tauson 7-6(1), 6-1 in the final of the Dubai Tennis Championships on Saturday, becoming the youngest player to win a WTA 1000 title at the age of 17 years and 298 days.
As a result, Russia’s Andreeva has also became the first 17-year-old to be ranked in the Top 10 since Nicole Vaidisova in 2007. She moved up five places to occupy the ninth spot.
1. Aryna Sabalenka – 9,076
2. Iga Swiatek (POL) – 7,985
3. Coco Gauff (USA) – 6,333
4. Jessica Pegula (USA) – 5,196
5. Madison Keys (USA) – 4,679
6. Jasmine Paolini (ITA) – 4,518
7. Elena Rybakina (KAZ) – 4,328
8. Qinwen Zheng (CHN) – 3,780
9. Mirra Andreeva – 3,720
10. Emma Navarro (USA) – 3,704
Tauson moved up 15 spots to a new career-high of 23rd.
Defending champion Paolini’s exit in the round of 16 cost her two spots as she dropped to sixth. Americans Jessica Pegula and Madison Keys moved up one spot each to fourth and fifth, respectively. For Keys, the Australian Open champion, it is a new career-high.
Elsewhere in the Top 100, Slovak Republic’s Rebecca Sramkova (40th), Japan’s Moyuka Uchijima (54th), Germany’s Eva Lys (77th) and Turkiye’s Zeynep Sonmez (88th) reached new career-high rankings.
