Waters Back In World Top Five
While Malaysia's Nicol David maintains her
tight grip on the top position in the Women's World Squash Rankings,
England's Alison Waters returns to her career-high No5 place as the
highest riser in the February list published by the Women's International
Squash Players' Association (WISPA).
David heads an unchanged group in the top four
places, with Dutch star Natalie Grinham in second place; England's
Jenny Duncalf at No3; and Rachael Grinham, of Australia, in fourth
place.
Alison Waters
began the year in fine style, romping through the Harrow Greenwich Open
field in the USA to win the WISPA Tour Silver title without dropping a
game.
Vanessa Atkinson,
the former world champion from the Netherlands who was a semi-finalist in
Greenwich, returns to the top ten at No10 for the first time for over a year.
One place below is France's rising star
Camille Serme, the 20-year-old from Creteil, near Paris, who is celebrating
a career-high position.
Also up two places is New Zealander Jaclyn
Hawkes, the 27-year-old from Auckland who moves to 15 after winning the
Chairman's Cup in Hong Kong.
After two months out of the top 20, Egypt's
Raneem El Weleily marks her return at No18 after becoming the only unseeded
player to make the Greenwich Open semi-finals.
