BC, Riga, 19.03.2018.Print version

Latvia's top-ranked lady tennis player Alona Ostapenko has moved up to fifth place in the WTA rankings this week - her highest ever ranking, reports LETA.


As reported, Ostapenko failed to advance to the third round of the Indian Wells Premier series tennis tournament last week, but that was enough to allow her to move up one spot in the rankings. Last week, the 20-year-old was ranked sixth in the world.


In the meantime, Anastasija Sevastova has moved up three spots in the latest WTA rankings and is currently in 17th place.


Diana Marcinkevica is ranked 271st, Daniela Vismane is 810th, Alise Cernecka is 1,026th and Irina Lapustina 1,064th.


Romania's Simona Halep is in first place in this week's WTA rankings, Caroline Wozniacki (Denmark) is second and Garbine Muguruza (Spain) is third.
