French Open champion Barbora Krejcikova, who continued her fine form with victory at the Women Tennis Association (WTA) event in Prague over the weekend, edged ever closer to the top 10 in the rankings released on Monday.

The 25-year-old eased past fellow Czech Tereza Martincova in the Prague Open final on Sunday to collect the third title in four tournaments and climb two places to 11th in the world, just two points behind Romania's Simone Halep.

Krejcikova is heading for the Tokyo Olympics where she will play the singles as well as doubles with Katerina Siniakova, with whom she has won three Grand Slam doubles titles, including this year's French Open.

Halep, who has been beset by injury problems this year, slipped a place with Garbine Muguruza going up to ninth, the only change in a top 10 still dominated by Wimbledon champion Ashleigh Barty.
