Despite an underwhelming year thus far, Emma Raducanu has broken into the top-10 WTA rankings. The Brit has not had much success since her resounding win at the US Open last year due to a multitude of factors, including injuries, but on Monday she made a remarkable rankings breakthrough.Raducanu is the fifth British player to break into the top-10 of the women's rankings since the introduction of the system. With Wimbledon not carrying any points this year, Karolina Pliskova dropped eight spots in the rankings, allowing Raducanu to enter the top 10.The Brit lost in the second round at SW19 to Caroline Garcia, in straight sets.wta@WTAWelcome to the Top 10 @EmmaRaducanu enters the ranking at No.10 and is the fifth British woman to break into the Top 10 since the system was introduced!2499220Welcome to the Top 10 👋🇬🇧 @EmmaRaducanu enters the ranking at No.10 and is the fifth British woman to break into the Top 10 since the system was introduced! https://t.co/2WIucaKWz4Iga Swiatek continues to be at the summit of the rankings with 8,336 points despite her disappointing run at SW19 this year.

The Brit has taken on several sponsorship deals even as her performances on the court have suffered.The newly crowned World No. 10 didn't reach the quarterfinals of a tournament until her run to the semifinals of the Stuttgart Open, where she lost to Iga Swiatek in straight sets. Raducanu has also failed to get past the second round of a Major this year; she has perished in the round-of-64 at every Grand Slam.With a lot of points to defend at this year's US Open, Emma Raducanu will have to quickly rekindle the form that won her the American hardcourt Major if she wants to stay in the top bracket of the rankings.
