Her quarter final loss to Shnaider in Paris was major shock and she has followed up with a very indifferent couple of matches in Berlin. After losing to Osaka at Wimbledon her lead at the top of the rankings is under threat. This leaves her lead as world #1 at just 400 points, having once been close to 3000 points.  Despite Elena Rybakina also losing earlier in Wimbledon, Paris and Berlin than she would have hoped the gap between the top two has closed.  Coco Gauff has risen back to #4 after reaching the semis in Wimbledon. She is now back at #4. Jessica Pegula is at a career high #3 spot after Iga Swiatek's early exit at Wimbledon.SHe falls to #8.

It is never easy to win on tour and sometimes a period of success leads to greater expectations and other challenges which then have a detrimental impact on a player's form. Alexandrova had an excellent end to 2025 but her form in 2026 continues to be patchy at best. She desperately needs a good end to the season to prevent her ranking dropping significantly. She has dropped to #19 already having been in the top 10. Other players struggling at present are Eva Lys and Clara Tauson. Now ranked 84 and #40 their immediate target is to claim two wins in a row.
