Brits in world top 100s - singles and doubles


Wow, thank you for this ladies and gents. I never knew that we never had a British number 1 on the Womens side. I would love to see a list of all the British players that have made it into the top 100.
Im not sure if any such list has ever been produced but thanks again for this though.

This is the best I can do with my limited knowledge and resources.
Maybe nobody is interested in this, but I just thought it would be good to get a list of the British top 100 club.

Please feel free to copy paste and add to the list as I am sure there are many players I have missed out.

I'm sure I saw a list of career highs on here somewhere - but have no idea where it might have been and haven't found it yet. Probably buried within another thread.

 Thanks Indiana.

so does this mean that we have only ever had 21 players into the top 100 on the Womens side?

No, at least 22, for you can add Katie O'Brien CH 84 ( confirmed on the ITF site ), as revealed in Jon's link to Aberdaberdonian's post 

I should have probably thought of Katie at the same time as I was adding Mel South of the same vintage. Though Mel more came to mind because I recalled her just sneaking into the top 100.

I was only talking about Katie OBrien last week.
So thats 2 Katies I forgot.
Its probably something to do with there, being too many Katies in British tennis.
