A maiden singles victory in the first round at the French Open has seen Indian tennis ace Sania Mirza rise seven places to 42 in the latest WTA rankings.
Sania, who was 50th last week, has 546 points. The 20-year-old, however, slid in the doubles chart, dropping four places to 41st.
The Indian ace's next assignment is this week's US $200,000 DFS Classic in Birmingham, where she will take on Maria Elena Camerin of Italy in the first round.
The Hyderabadi player beat Italy's Alberta Brianti to register her maiden victory at the clay court Grand Slam before crashing out to a straight-set loss against seventh seed Ana Ivanovic of Serbia, the losing finalist.
In the ATP charts, Leander Paes's second-round loss at the French Open pushed him down by four places to 10th this week.
However, Mahesh Bhupathi improved his ranking by six rungs to 20th following his semi-final appearance at Roland Garros.
Paes and his Czech partner Martin Damm were seeded third in the event but were dumped out by an unseeded German duo.
Bhupathi, meanwhile, teamed up with Czech Radek Stepanak for the tournament and the duo made it to the last-four stage.
