Sania Mirza's doubles title victory at MPS Group Championship has catapulted her nine places to the 59th position in the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) rankings released Monday. The 22-year-old Indian's title win in Florida Sunday was her first with Chuang Chia-Jung of Chinese Taipei (Taiwan). Chuang jumped three places to be at the 14th spot. The two also reached the semi-final at Miami last week. Sania's singles rankings, however, remains unchanged at 100. In the men's singles, India's No.1 Somdev Devvarman has climbed a rung to be at 149 while Prakash Amritraj has slipped three places to 192. In the men's doubles rankings, Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi are static at sixth and 10th.
