Elina Svitolina has cracked the Top 10 on the heels of her WTA Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships title on Saturday. The 22-year-old becomes the first player from Ukraine to crack the Top 10, finishing the week with a 17-2 record on the season.

She defeated Caroline Wozniacki in Saturday's Dubai final, 6-4, 6-2, to stretch her career-best winning streak to 12. It was her sixth career title.

Svitolina’s rise pushes Jo Konta back to No.11 in the rankings.

Other WTA rankings risers include Anastasija Sevastova, who climbs from 35 to a career-high 24 as a result of her Dubai semifinal, and Hungary’s Timea Babos, who climbs from 33 to 27 thanks to her Budapest title.

17-year-old American CiCi Bellis rises from No.70 to No.56 thanks to her quarterfinal run at Dubai. Bellis is the youngest woman in the WTA’s Top 100.
