Yes ok, I'll update here too according to that WTA pdf list, which is different from the rankings listed on the WTA website, since those don't include the points that players gained from their last rounds of matches.

The WTA website rankings at 30/03 are now in line with that WTA pdf. The OER ( women's ) figures are still out of line.
I'm attaching those revised frozen rankings finally, as per the WTA site now, as Indy notes.
Can't help wondering how many of those on this list will actually resume playing again when all this is over. I hope most of them will, but I'm sure once tournament play does finally resume that there will be many fewer players in the lower reaches of the rankings. That's for the future now. This is where all our women players will resume from once tournament play starts again.
There will need to be decisions before this as to how the rankings will continue to work, though the safest system would merely be to resume the rankings where they are now, and effectively from the date where they stopped. Thus if there are 4 months of non-tournament play now, when the rankings resume, the next week's points to come off would be the Indian Wells points that are still there, and so on. This would mean for a year the points coming off would effectively be 16 months behind instead of 12 months behind, until we reach the point where the restart occurred, and then we would be back to the 12 months points rotation.
Let's hope it's not too many more months before we find out what they will actually do, but already this will be post the grass season at least.
Hello everyone, I've been tied up with work of late, but have seen that the rankings have come live again this week, so I will update subsequently and then resume again next week. Hope all are well!!
I see this thread hasn't been touched for over 6 months - hope all is well with Michael.
Didn't know where to put this, but quite an interesting tweet regarding points accrued over the past 12 months. It's not perfect because they seem to have added AO points, but then not included them in the current ranking positions - it would have been better if they had waited until tomorrow, but it's still a good gauge as to who has done well over the past 12 months, and those not quite so much.
I knew she had a super 12 months, relatively, reaching the SF of that Mexican WTA tournament that Heather won, SF of a W100, and qualifying for and winning a match at the French Open (as well as giving Svitolina a bagel on Chatrier), but quite interesting to see that Zarazua has picked up the (circa, not exact) 74th most posts over the past 12 months, so Katie really did beat a player in good form yesterday.
Only seen this from the ATP also far but given previous announcements with regard to rankings, I guess the WTA may soon follow suit so start getting the calculators out!
Yes, the WTA appear to be followers rather than leaders. Saves them having to put their minds to such things and at least it will probably be better if they are on the same page with the latest ATP changes, complex as they may be.
Not sure where to put this but the TNNS app has had another version upgrade today. Looks like there will be improved access to ITFs and also entry lists look like they are coming too.
