I guess we should officially welcome our Four-Juniors-In-The-Top-100 week ! As it's now 2016 and all that (4 for boys, 3 for girls, so nearly 4.....).

Will be interest to see how Luke Hammond performs - he's Dec 1998, so practically a 1999-er and has played a whole heap less tournaments than any of the others (has only played 14 point scoring events, whereas Jay Clarke, for instance, has played 42 - it's a huge difference).

Assume Matt James is with him this week - wishing them both well. And all the others, of course......

It's looking much healthier than this time last year and given the change in funding I can see the Memphis Tigers getting a significant upgrade over the next few years!

Finn: +14 to JWR 118

Louis Newman: +39 to JWR 334

Max Benaim: +49 to JWR 519

Jodie leading the way in the girls:

Emily Appleton +23 to JWR 243

Eliz Maloney (born 2000) +17 to JWR 250

There's going to be some pretty big moves when this week's ranking points go on....

Oakland2002 · All-time great

Thanks for that. Very interesting.

Given that on occasions you get bumper years with a 2-3 players really pushing each other being top 3 does your future prospects no halm if you aspire to go deep into the second week of slams.

Me I am much more of a Universal tennis rankings man myself, very disappointing lack of kitchen spam this morning just as the hard tops are beginning to show some wear but I am sure the boys will step upto the mark imminently.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

In the Junior rankings this week, last week's victories turned it into a very good week for our 2001-ers:

Gemma Heath +26 to JWR 398

Jonéa Bach +119 to JWR 522

Esther Adeshina +158 too JWR 677

Also, a big congrats to 'tiddler' Isabella Nunez, age 13, who won a round in the Colombian G1 event !!!!! (completely unbeknownst to me - mega apologies, Isabella).

And so enters the rankings at JWR 1173

In the boys,

Jeremy Gschwendtner +29 to JWR 435

Damian Rodriguez +92 to JWR 533

Julian Robinson +100 to JWR 751

Brandon Murphy +118 to JWR 779

Thanks for spotting Isabella, who I also missed as she got in with a wildcard. She describes herself as Anglo-Columbian, but with aspirations to represent Columbia (as number one in the world smile ) as this article about her victory shows.

Interesting.

I'd assumed at first that she must be based out there.

But then I read this article:

www.stroudnewsandjournal.co.uk/news/13370100.TENNIS__Wimbledon_the_spur_for_tennis_ace_Isabella_Nunez/

which is only from this summer and suggests she lives in the UK (Painswick / Stroud).

But maybe she is more in Colombia now? Or is still in the UK but just wants to represent Colombia (because of family ties?)

DavidC · Tennis legend

According to the Colombian article Isabella was born in the UK to Colombian parents, and I think has lived in the UK ever since, but does indeed want to represent Colombia because of family roots (or at least that is what she is telling the media there).

Is thevColombian tennis association well funded?

Girls - 1st Feb 2016

Katie Swan has obviously dropped down, as the Aussie Open points come off, now JWR 13

The two big movers this week, obviously, however, are our 2001-ers:

Jonéa Bach born 2001 +63 to JWR 459

Esther Adeshina born 2001 +119 to JWR 558

Sasha Southgate, also 2001, enters the rankings at JWR 1869

Although not playing, Ali Collins and Fran Jones, our 2000-ers, also rose +6 and +7 points respectively, to JWR 167 and JWR 181

Boys

Alexis Canter is +26 to JWR 84

Max Stewart +29 to JWR 205

Damian Rodriguez +164 to JWR 369
