This was reported on the official website of the organization.

The national tennis leader moved up two positions and now holds the 19th spot in the global rankings.

Svitolina also made minimal progress, moving up one spot to 28th place, while Yastremska remained in 33rd. Angelina Kalinina dropped two positions to 54th, while Lesia Tsurenko held onto her previous ranking at 82nd.
