SONY ERICSSON WTA TOUR RANKINGS
The Sony Ericsson WTA Tour Rankings is the worldwide computer ranking for women’s professional tennis.
The ranking system is a 52-week, cumulative system in which the number of Tournament results that comprise a player’s ranking is capped at 17 Tournament results for Singles and 11 Tournament results for Doubles.
The results used to determine a player’s ranking are the Tournaments yielding the player’s highest Ranking points over the past 52 weeks.
I think it is good thing by sony ericsson that they launch these kind of events to promote female tannis tours. In this way can easily promote their products as well as they can promote this game too.
Its great to know that Ana Ivanovic is on top. I’m her big fan
