Back to 10 top 100ers and 8 of these are in men's doubles !

Bally drops out ( WR 91 to WR 101 ).  Hopefully we will be getting one or two more added in again from women's singles soon though.  Heather looking good if she can get through one round at Wimbledon.

LTA target reached on schedule, even if we don't think much of it as a target (and you count Andy twice)

After a very good week for the girls, the top 100ers jump to 15 ! ( 12 separate players with Andy, Heather and Anne counting both singles and doubles ).

New entrants / returners are Laura in WS after her tour SF ( WR 113 to WR 91 ), Heather in WD after her tour Premier title ( WR 108 to 81 ) and Anne in WD after her tour Premier QF ( WR 109 to WR 99 ).

With Anne WR 99 in WD and Bally WR 100 in WS and with just 2 players currently ranked from WR 101 to WR 200 ( James Ward in MS at WR 153 and Mel South in WD at WR 170 ), I think we can safely say 15 top 100ers is not going to be beaten for quite some time. But it is quite a step ( if possibly fairly temporary ) to reach that 15 total, most particularly having 4 women top 100 singles players.

Ah well, the high of 15 lasted just one week.  I hope Roger the Dodger managed a press release in that small window  

15 wef 16.07.12 : 1 MS, 8 MD, 4 WS, 2 WD   Andy, Heather and Anne counting both singles and doubles.

Bally has slipped out of the singles top 100 ( WR 100 to WR 102 ) and Anne has slipped back out of the doubles top 100 ( WR 99 to WR 102 )

As well as record top 100 players, I've noticed a lot of men joining the rankings and not many leaving. Does anyone have stats on the record number of ranked players?

According to this, it does look as if there has been about the same number of guys joining the rankings as leaving them this year :

If I remember right from updating that table and the new/off section of the GB top 25 table, there were more leavers than joiners in the first half of the year but that effect has been balanced by more ons than offs over the summer.
