Aryna Sabalenko on Tuesday advanced to the quarterfinals of the US Open 2022, as a result of which she will overtake Simona Halep in the WTA hierarchy.
Simona Halep is ranked 9th in WTA Live, which is two places lower than before the start of the US Open
In WTA Live, Sabalenka has 3120 points, by which she surpassed Halep.
At the moment, Simona has 3025 points and is in 9th place, two places lower than before the start of the US Open.
Halep will not leave the WTA TOP-10 after the US Open
Only two athletes can surpass our athlete in the world ranking: Karolina Garcia (in real time she is 12) and Karolina Plishkova (20).
However, the athletes mentioned above need to win a trophy at the US Open to surpass Halep. With only one to win, Simona can only lose one place in the world rankings, meaning she will end up in 10th place at worst at the end of the US Open.
It will be recalled that Halep left the last Grand Slam of the season early, she unexpectedly lost to Daria Snigur in the first round at Flushing Meadows.
