This week's Big Gainer of the week award goes to Kristina Mladenovic. She was unseeded at Saint Petersburg, and after defeating the Upset player of the week (see below), she went on to beat Roberta Vinci, and eventually won the title! This title gave Kristina 51 ELO rating points, which sees her gain 16 places in my rankings to #23.

The Upset player of the week this week is Venus Williams. After her Australian Open final, she was seeded 4th at Saint Petersburg and received a bye to the 2nd round, but she lost her match to the player who went on to be the Big Gainer of the week (see above). This loss cost Venus 13 ELO rating points, and she fell a place in my rankings to #14.

Other strong performers relative to their rankings are Yulia Putintseva, Peng Shuai, Zhu Lin, Mandy Minella and Ons Jabeur.

Now, the full rankings.
