How do they decide on the WR? I am surprised to see Wabson with such a low one.

 They add the doubles ranking of the two players together. 

Heather is 143 and Laura 1073 so their combined ranking is 1216.

 Thanks, I thought there was some system whereby their singles ranks counted towards their dubs one?

In ATP tournaments players can use their singles ranking to gain entry to a tournament but all seedings are based on the combined doubles ranking, i.e Andy can use his singles ranking when playing with Jamie to get them into all the Masters Series and Grand Slams but they wouldn't be seeded. I don't think this rules applies to Women's tournaments but I'm not 100% sure.

I sent a tweet to Anna Smith last month and she replied saying she's still making plans for a comeback, although no date set yet.
