As Ali posted last week no doubt about the leader at this stage of the season; with a quite incredible 15 point lead Miriambee is the clear leader with paulsi in second place 5 points clear of cakj1234 in 3rd.
Looking at the race positions, the race ultimately being the rankings 2 weeks before our prediction rankings are finalised.
The position next Monday will be :
1. Jo 2/3. Naomi / Heather ( Naomi at #2 unless Heather goes further than her this week ) 4. Tara 5. Katie B 6. Amanda 7. Gabi 8. Katy D 9. Katie S 10. Laura
11. Emily 12. Maia 13. Suzy
14. Eden
All the above have generally been fit and playing so the list would appear to be a reasonable ordering for the early race months though some will have been more active than others. Does indicate Laura for one needs to reaquaint herself with rather better tennis. Time moves on for such as Sam although I'm not sure there were many punts at all on injured players at outset. Notably slow out of the blocks have been Harriet and Freya.

Still early days and too early to say how much longer I shall be at the top, especially as I realise that Amanda C and Katie B are completely out of my reckonings!
If Amanda ends up in RG, as I never imagined, I thought she was going nowhere, my rankings will plummet.
Update for the women after French Open. Miriambee is currently on course for "the double" leading both groups which is very impressive. Jon tucked in second place, then a gap with The Optimist in third just ahead of the pack. Wimbledont slips to the bottom of the table.
Post Wimbledon update. Miriambee is still in the lead but now joined at the top by indiana, who is also heading up the men's predictions. Jon moves into 3rd.
Quite a few predictions for JoKo to be WR4, with Wimbledont the most optimistic predicting 3.
