THIS WEEK: Amelie Mauresmo was the winner of the inaugural Slovak Indoor tournament, pushing her into the top 10. Countrywoman Nathalie Tauziat also surged in the top 10 with a tournament win at the Kremlin Cup, while defending champion Mary Pierce failed to win a match. Pierce is the loser of the week.

WTA #80 Anastasia Myskina finally broke through to the SRI Rankings Top 50 Women, debuting at 39. Nadejda Petrova was the other entry, up from 82 two weeks ago to a new high of 45 (WTA #123 -> #114). She spent one week in the Top 50 back in May.
