Serme
Celebrates Top Ten Entry In New World Rankings
Camille Serme
makes her top ten debut in the new May Women's World Squash Rankings,
published by the Women's International Squash Players'
Association (WISPA) - and become the joint highest-ranked French player of
all-time.
Malaysia's Nicol David
maintains her tight grip on top position in the list, extending her unbroken
reign as world number one to 46 months after winning her 44th WISPA World
Tour title - and her third in succession this year - at last month's
Cayman Islands Open.
But Camille Serme is
celebrating the latest milestone in her brief career to date. Outside the top 30
a year ago, the 21-year-old from Creteil equals illustrious compatriot
Isabelle Stoehr's career-best ranking of 10.
Voted the WISPA Most
Improved Player of the Year last year and now the youngest player in the
top ten, Serme already boasts five WISPA Tour titles - and in February reached
her ninth final at the Creteil International Open at her home club in
Paris.
England's Jenny Duncalf
holds onto second place in the new list, while Australian Rachael Grinham
moves up to fourth place, just behind her younger sister Natalie Grinham
at No3.
Another rising Australian is
Kasey Brown, the New York-based 24-year-old from New South Wales who moves
to a career-high world No9.
And Mexican Samantha Teran
takes a step closer to the top ten by moving up a single place to a best-ever
11th place.
Further Australian success is
marked by Donna Urquhart, the 23-year-old left-hander from New South
Wales who celebrates a career-best 19 ranking.
