Thanks, Peter; I agree with all the above. Particular mention should, perhaps, be made of the big strides in doubles rankings made by Anna Smith, up 40 spots to 187, and Jocelyn Rae, up more than 150 places into the world's top 500.

Sorry, but no updates to the tables next week, as I'm away to sunny (I hope) Spain. Perhaps Peter too will list any new highs?

In the case you have missed it/can't find it, DJ, the only title won is the last two weeks was Anne Keothavong winning her third career $50,000 title in Barnstaple.

Thanks very much for that, Wolf; I have been reading through the threads to see if I'd missed any titles, and had just looked at the Honours thread to add Anne's win when I noticed your post - much appreciated. I'll add in your junior title updates in a few minutes, before looking at what's been happening on the men's side.

Ah, sorry, Peter; I keep missing Johanna as she's still listed as Australian. Thanks for reminding me.
