How the points have moved
Ranking points are a rolling 52-week total: every point was earned at a tournament in the last year and expires on the anniversary of that tournament, whether or not the player enters it again. That is why a player can lose points in a week without losing a match. A dash means we have no published ranking that far back for Elena Rybakina.
Ranking points this year
Highest this year: 9,901 points (#1) on Sep 14. Lowest: 5,850 points (#5) on Jan 5. Based on 38 weekly rankings.
