WTA rankings update: Danielle Collins re-enters top 10; champions Magdalena Frech and Sonay Kartal achieve new career-highs | September 16

The latest edition of the WTA rankings saw limited movement in the last week as most of the top-ranked players were not in action at the Guadalajara Open and the Jasmin Open. However, the bottom half of the top 10 saw some change, as Danielle Collins returned to the Top 10.

Collins did not fare well herself, as she lost in her first match at the Guadalajara Open to eventual runner-up Olivia Gadecki. This saw Collins drop 184 points as had reached the semifinals of the San Diego Open at this time last year and was defending the points from that run. The Guadalajara loss took her points to 3178.

However, the points drop still helped Collins improve her ranking from 11th to 10th as Barbora Krejcikova forfeited her points from winning the San Diego Open last year. The Czech player dropped 470 points and slipped from the 9th position to the 11th in the WTA rankings.

Last week's winners, Magdalena Frech and Sonay Kartal achieved career-high rankings with their victories at the Guadalajara Open and the Jasmin Open respective. Frech scored 452 points from her win in Mexico, which saw her jump 11 places and attain a new career-best ranking of 32.

Sonay Kartal's run at the Jasmin Open, which saw her win her maiden WTA title, earned the Brit 268 points and helped her break into the top 100 for the first time in her career. She is currently the World No. 96
