After losing at the WTA Dubai Open qualifiers, Sania also lost in the first round of the Malaysian Open singles event this week.

She, however, managed to maintain her seventh place in the doubles ranking.

Meanwhile, the out-of-action Somdev Devvarman lost 15 places to be down at 135 in the ATP singles rankings list.

In the doubles rankings, Leander Paes continued to be the highest ranked Indian at number seven.

New Indian men's doubles pair of Mahesh Bhupathi and Rohan Bopanna, who won their first ATP World Tour title together at the Dubai Open, gained three places each.

While Bopanna is now placed at No. eight, Bhupathi has climbed to the twelfth spot in the doubles ranking.
