Despite not having participated in the Miami Open, Polish tennis player Iga Swiatek continues to remain at the top of the WTA rankings. On the other hand, Czech veteran Petra Kvitova, who won the tournament, now ranks tenth in the circuit, and Kazakhstan’s Elena Rybakina remained in seventh position.
Brazilian tennis player Beatriz Haddad Maia was eliminated in the third round of the Miami tournament by Jelena Ostapenko, but managed to stay in the 14th position of the ranking. On the other hand, Spanish player Paula Badosa, who was also eliminated in the third round of the tournament by Rybakina, dropped four places in the ranking, from 29th to 33rd.
The Miami Open is a major tennis tournament held every year in Miami, Florida, and is one of the most important events on the WTA calendar. Kvitova’s victory in the tournament allowed her to move up in the rankings, while Swiatek’s absence did not affect her position at the top.

The points awarded for each tournament depend on the category of the tournament as well as the level of the opponents faced. In this way, the WTA ranking reflects the performance of the players in the most important tournaments in the world.
