Kazakh singles tennis players completed their performances at the prestigious tournament in Miami (Florida, USA). Three athletes immediately reached the stage of the 1/16 finals, but failed to break into the 1/8 finals. Correspondent bbabo.net - about how this will affect the positions of the best tennis players in the country in the rankings.
All three players from Kazakhstan, who are in the top 100 single ratings, reached the third round of the tournament. But in the confrontation for reaching the fourth round, Alexander Bublik, Elena Rybakina and Yulia Putintseva lost in straight sets.
The best tennis player of Kazakhstan surprised the world with a unique blow
Bagel, which occupies 33rd place in the world rankings, will lose positions in the rankings. Now the Kazakhstani in the Live mode is already in 36th place, but before the end of the competition he risks losing a few more lines. There can't be any improvements here.
As for the female rating, the situation will improve for Putintseva. The 27-year-old Kazakhstani in the Live rating rose to 45th place from 47th position. In the worst situation, Belarusian Alexander Sasnovich can bypass Yulia. But even in this scenario, Putintseva will rise in the report card by one line.
22-year-old Rybakina is also in the black so far. Before the start of the competition, the first racket of the country was in 18th place in the ranking. As of March 28, Elena moved up to the 17th position in the Live table. But Rybakina still runs the risk of not only returning to 18th place, but also going down. Several competitors are breathing down her back at once.
Moreover, in the 1/16 finals, Rybakina lost to American Jessica Pegula, who is only 46 points behind the Kazakhstani. If she wins the next game as well, she will beat Elena.
It should be noted that Rybakina, Putintseva and Bublik earned 67.5 thousand US dollars in prize money for reaching the third round. This is approximately 33.4 million tenge.
