Kvitova

Petra reached the final in Dubai to overtake Sloane Stephens as the new world no.3. Even more important, the Czech is now leading the Year to Date rankings to be a serious threat for Osaka.

Bencic

Belinda is finally back after her wrist surgery. The Swiss had an amazing week in Dubai where she won the tournament after beating 4 top10 players such as Aryna Sabalenka, Simona Halep, Elina Svitolina, and Petra Kvitova. Bencic goes up 22 places in the rankings to be the new world no.23. Belinda is also world no.4 in the year to date rankings.
