Sania slides three places in WTA rankings

Sania Mirza's world ranking slipped three places to leave the teen tennis sensation positioned at 37 on the latest WTA Tour list released today.

Sania, who touched a career high ranking of 34 after her US Open exploits, suffered a second round defeat at the USD 170,000 Sunfeast Open in Kolkata last week.

The Hyderabadi also crashed out in the first round of a WTA Tour event in Bali, Indonesia, the previous week.

Sania now has 880.75 points from 22 weeks of play on the pro circuit.

Meanwhile, Mahesh Bhupathi's individual Doubles Entry ranking too went down by one place and the nine-time Grand Slam champion was ranked 12th in the latest ATP Tour charts.

Leander Paes on the other hand maintained his 16th position.
