Coco Gauff makes intriguing WTA Laver Cup proposal as Madison Keys, Jessica Pegula & Emma Navarro join her for US dominance in top 10

Four Americans, including Coco Gauff, Jessica Pegula, Madison Keys, and Emma Navarro, occupy a Top 10 spot in the latest WTA rankings. Three of them celebrated the achievement online, with Gauff even taking it a step ahead and proposing a women’s Laver Cup.

Although the Top 4 have remained the same, several changes have been observed in the WTA rankings after the Australian Open. Elena Rybakina has jumped to No. 5 again with a fourth-round run while Keys matches her career-high of World No. 7 after earning her maiden Grand Slam title in Melbourne.

Qinwen Zheng lost three spots and ranked at No. 8 after a disappointing campaign while Navarro also fell to No. 9. Paula Badosa, meanwhile, returned to a Top 10 spot for the first time since October 2022 following her impressive semifinal run.

Gauff continued her run into Melbourne with three more straight sets wins before dropping a set against Belinda Bencic in the fourth round. The 20-year-old, however, overpowered the Swiss but was beaten in straight sets by Paula Badosa in the quarterfinal.

Jessica Pegula, the 2024 US Open finalist, had strong hopes going into another hardcourt Grand Slam, and she started with a bang. The seventh seed won two matches in straight sets but faced a shock upset against Olga Danilovic in the third round.

Meanwhile, Emma Navarro won all her four matches in three sets before Iga Swiatek dominated her with a 6-1, 6-2 win in the quarterfinal.

Madison Keys, on the other hand, pulled off one of the most extraordinary runs to a Grand Slam title. She defeated 10th seed Danielle Collins, sixth seed Elena Rybkina, and the top 2 of Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka.
