Women’s doubles
Thanks to her winning campaign in Wuhan, Storm Hunter has been rewarded with a significant rise in this week’s WTA doubles rankings.
The 31-year-old, who last week combined with Katerina Siniakova to win the first doubles title since returning to tennis earlier in 2025, jumps 35 places to world No.39.
Also rising was Olivia Gadecki, who continues to thrive on the ITF circuit in the United States. She improved four spots to a career-high ranking of world No.56.
