Sharapova returns to the top 60

16.10.2017

Thanks to her victory in the WTA International tennis tournament final in Tianjin, Maria Sharapova will return to the top 60 of the world rankings officially next week.The 30-year-old Russian started the fight for the Chinese city`s 86th position, and after defeating Arina Saballenka from Belarus 7: 5, 7: 6 (8), she will pull 29 points to 57th.




Thus, the 30-year-old Russian will no longer be so upset by the decision of the organizers of the various tournaments to reward it with a wildcard for the main schemes.Since the end of April this year, when Sharapova has endured her punishment, she invariably took part in special invitations to the events of the WTA calendar.Six months later, the Russian has achieved one of her important tasks to significantly improve her rankings, with the Tianjin title being the first for her (36th overall) since May 17, 2015 when she won the Rome Award.
