There is a 'surpass' in the WTA ranking and this is one of the most important movements in recent years. The great form of Elena Rybakina at the start of the year and winning the Australian Open brought her increasingly dangerously close to Iga Swiatek in the WTA ranking. And in this Indian Wells 2026 , with the elimination of the Pole in the quarterfinals and the Kazakh's advancement to the semifinals, positions have been exchanged.
