Alex Eala has achieved a career-high ranking of world number seventeen following her quarter-final appearance at the Tokyo Open, positioning her just twenty-six points behind Naomi Osaka as she prepares for the Hong Kong Open. Meanwhile, Diana Shnaider captured the Tokyo title to move up to world number eleven, while runner-up Leylah Fernandez jumped five spots to world number eighteen after stringing together three strong finals appearances since the US Open.
