The mantle of world No.1 in tennis is something every player aspires for but few ever achieve.
When it comes to women's singles, Serena Williams dominated for years, although younger players have since emerged to stake their claim for the crown.
Aryna Sabalenka is currently the current gold standard, with Coco Gauff next in line.

With the third grand slam of the year now approaching, Sabalenka finds herself comfortably with number one ranking.
French Open champion Gauff has boosted her points total, but is still well off the pace.
Iga Swiatek, meanwhile, has fallen a further two places after Roland-Garros.

How do tennis rankings work?
Women's tennis world rankings are calculated by the WTA, who award points based on a player's performance at particular tournaments.
The further a player progresses in a sanctioned event, the more points they will be awarded.
Grand slams provide the most points with 2000 awarded to the winner and 1200 to the runner-up.
Points picked up from each tournament last for one year with rankings updated each week.
When are tennis rankings updated?
Both the ATP and WTA update their rankings every Monday when tournaments aren't running.
So, in general, you can expect weekly updates aside from when Grand Slams are being held.
