New Delhi: Sania Mirza's dip in the rankings continued with the Indian tennis sensation lying 68th on the latest WTA charts.

Sania slipped seven places from her last week's 61st place following her first round loss to Meghann Shaughnessy of USA in Bangkok Open last week.

The American, however, has leaped to 37th from her previous 43rd rank.

The Hyderabadi, who now has 382 singles ranking points from at least two dozens of WTA tours in last couple of years, also saw downslide in her doubles rankings. She slipped one place to 27th.
