But no players will be dropping any points for the remainder of the year ( unless improved on ). So can't lose their ranking unless say voluntarily due to retirement.

Had a discussion about this with OER about a year ago - they answer questions quickly, and comprehensively. If a player stops playing the points linger on until they expire - but if they "retire" from the WTA all the points come off straight away. The "retirement" option only used to be used by top players but is now more general.

So it will depend on what players decide to do. I think there is a similar situation in the ATP.

Thanks SB - interesting no team is on 10 players, so no one on the cusp at the moment. Kazakhstan and Mexico could of course add a player and join the happy party if they can get someone else ranked!

I make it that the GB men have signed off for now on 16/03 up 22 at 1907.

Brydan is into our top 10, personally up 65 to WR 361 and up 26 on Ryan P's previous #10 ranking.

1907 represents the best GB figure since the end of 2017 before Aljaz reverted to Slovenian.
Good time to sign off then, if there is a good time to sign off!

And now better still, 1900 at 31/08/20, thanks to Andy and Liam.
