Alex Eala dipped four spots to world No. 77 in the latest WTA rankings released after the French Open, continuing a quiet stretch for the 19-year-old Filipino tennis star.

Eala, who reached a career-high no. 69 before her Roland Garros main draw debut, had dropped to no. 73 after a first-round exit in Paris.

With a 16–13 record on the year, she has since opened her grass-court campaign but fell in the opening round of the Birmingham Open, where she was seeded third.

Still, Eala gets a quick chance to bounce back as the top seed in the upcoming Ilkley Open, a WTA 125 event in the United Kingdom.

Meanwhile, French Open champion Coco Gauff now has a firm hold on the world no. 2 spot behind Aryna Sabalenka, who remains at no. 1 despite falling short in the Roland Garros final.
