Sania slips down to 34th spot

New Delhi: Sania Mirza slipped two places to the 34th spot in the latest WTA Tour rankings announced on Monday after the Australian Open.

Sania, who was seeded 32nd in the season’s first Grand Slam, lost in the second round to Michaela Krajicek of The Netherlands. The loss, combined with her first round exit in a WTA event in Sydney the preceding week, saw the 19-year old from Hyderabad go down in the rating list.

Meanwhile, Australian Open runner-up Marcos Baghdatis climbed 27 places to a career-high 27th in the new ATP Tour rankings released on Monday.

The Cypriot lost Sunday’s final to world No.1 Roger Federer of Switzerland, who consolidated his position at the top with his seventh Grand Slam title.

Federer moved to 7,275 points, 2,660 ahead of world No.2 Rafael Nadal of Spain and 4,490 clear of third-placed American Andy Roddick.

German Nicolas Kiefer climbed 13 places to 12th.
