US Open winner Paola Longoria is again the #1 player in the latest Ladies Professional Racquetball Tour (LPRT) rankings released this week. US Open finalist Rhonda Rajsich is holding steady at #2, and Susana Acosta remains at #3 with her US Open semi-final finish.
But Cristina Amaya's rise up the rankings continues, as she's the new #4 player moving ahead of Samantha Salas who's now #5, although Salas did get to the semis in Minneapolis by beating Amaya in the quarter-finals.
Maria Jose Vargas remains the 6th ranked player with both Adrienne Haynes and Veronica Sotomayor moving up - to 7th and 8th, respectively. Cheryl Gudinas, who still hasn't played an LPRT event this season, drops down to 9th with Da'monique Davis moving up one spot to 10th, rounding out the top 10.
The biggest move in the rankings is by Frédérique Lambert, who's jumped eight spots from 20th to 12th just behind #11 Grace Hughes, who's moved to Japan and hasn't played any LPRT events this season but may in the second half of the season.
Maria Paz Muñoz is up again and now sits in 13th place ahead of veterans Jennifer Saunders and Kerri Wachtel, who also has been absent from the tour due to injury.
Finally, in the 16-20 spots, Carla Muñoz is back on the top 20 at #16 ahead of Linda Scales and Hailey Miller, in 17th and 18th, respectively. T. J. Baumbaugh and Sofia Rascon round out the top 20 in 19th and 20th, respectively.
Krystal Csuk and Jackie Paraiso have dropped out of the top 20.
The LPRT is on a bit of a break as the next event is the Christmas Classic in Arlington, Virginia December 6-8, 2013.
