WORLD NO.1 – TOP SPOT ON THE LINE AT WIMBLEDON The fortnight of 2017 Wimbledon will represent Angelique Kerber’s 33rd and 34th non-consecutive weeks at World No.1.

Kerber made her debut as the WTA World No.1 on September 12, 2016 – snapping Serena Williams’ three-and-a-half year spell in the top spot. She is just the second German woman to achieve this historic milestone since computer rankings were introduced in 1975, and the first since Stefanie Graf spent the last of her record 377 weeks at No.1 in March 1997.

In 2016, Kerber clinched the year-end No.1 ranking for the first time, becoming the 12th player to finish the season as the WTA’s year-end No.1 (joining Graf, Navratilova, Evert, S.Williams, Davenport, Henin, Hingis, Seles, Wozniacki, Azarenka and Jankovic).

A finalist last year, Kerber is defending 1300 points at Wimbledon and will therefore need to reach the semifinals to have a chance of retaining her No.1 ranking.

Karolina Pliskova, who lost in the second round last year, is defending only 70 points and as a result is in pole position to move to No.1 should Kerber fall early. Simona Halep, who narrowly missed out on top spot at Roland Garros, could also overtake Kerber. The Romanian will need to reach the quarterfinals to have a chance at moving to No.1.

Elina Svitolina, and potentially Caroline Wozniacki (if she reaches the Eastbourne final), could also claim the No.1 ranking but would require other results to fall in their favor.
