Joint claimed her first tour-level title last week at the WTA 250 claycourt event and was rewarded with a rise of 25 spots to a career-high ranking of world No.53.

Ajla Tomljanovic improved eight places to world No.71 following her trip to the semis in Rabat, where injury curtailed her semifinal match against Joint.
She avenged that defeat to Joint in the first round at Roland Garros, and by reaching the second round has improved her WTA live ranking to 63rd.
Also enjoying a notable rise this week was Jaimee Fourlis, who went up 21 spots to world No.340 following her recent run to the ITF W35 semifinals in Bastad, Sweden.
