WSA World Rankings
Whilst
Malaysian Nicol David continues to head an unchanged top five,
France's Camille Serme and Hong Kong's Annie Au record
notable rises in the top 10 of the March Women's World Squash
Rankings published by the Women's Squash Association (WSA).
Serme,
winner of a sixth successive French national title last month, moves up
to No6 - boosted by a surprise semi-final berth in January's WSA Gold
Tournament of Champions. The 24-year-old from Creteil is celebrating
her highest ranking of the year.
Hong
Kong No1 Au also moved up two positions - to No8 - to mark her best
ranking since 2012. The left-hander achieved a remarkable run in last
month's WSA Gold Cleveland Classic in Ohio where she downed three
seeds in a row to reach the final as a qualifier.
Nicol
David
marks her 92nd successive month as world number one, ahead of England's
Laura Massaro at two; Egyptian Raneem El Welily at No3;
England's British national champion Alison Waters at four; and
New Zealander Joelle King in fifth place.
Egypt's Nour El Tayeb has recorded a rare leap of nine places to
No18 - making a welcome return to the top 20 for the first time since
April 2012.
A
qualifier in last month's Cleveland Classic, the 20-year-old from Cairo
celebrated a first ever win over higher-ranked compatriot and regular
training partner Raneem El Welily to make the semi-finals.
