The new WTA rankings were released on April 11, 2011, with the top seeded players in WTA, Caroline Wozniacki, Kim Clijsters and Vera Zvonareva have remained the same in their positions. There were no major changes in the WTA top 20 tennis rankings.

Victoria Azarenka was the only change in the ranking, as she rose to a new career-high of No.5 on the new rankings, after her victory on Sunday and her match victory streak reached 11 with a triumph in the Marbella. It was the most memorable month for Victoria Azarenka’s career, as she has won back to back titles in Sony Ericsson Open 2011 and Marbella open.

"WTA top 10 tennis rankings" Azarenka has now joined with Natasha Zvereva for the highest rank as a Belarusian and it could be the best chance for her to surpass Natasha Zvereva. However, the World No.4, Francesca Schiavone has a terrific amount to defend her ranking points, having won Barcelona and the French Open last year.

The World no.1, Caroline Woznizcki after her victory in the Family Circle Cup 2011 has achieved 9930 points in the ranking table and is now at the safest side in her position with the Belgium out of tennis with an injury.

The other two changes in the WTA are the quarterfinalist in the Family Circle cup, Christina McHale going from No.97 to a new career-high of No.82 and Sania Mirza from No.90 to No.73, her highest ranking since February 2010.
