Indian Wells: Big jump for Sachia Vickery, thanks to her two-tiebreak win over Alla Kudryavtseva in the first round of Indian Wells. Another wildcard, Chirico, lost to Donna Vekic but still gained the benefit of 10 points for the main draw appearance. Embree's jump came courtesy of a first-round qualifying win over Kimiko Date-Krumm. She felt juuuust shy of an even bigger jump when she lost to Daria Gavrilova in an intense, long three-set match. In any case, she's on the happy side of 300 for the first time, which is pretty damn good, particularly with nothing to defend until the end of June.
Bellis, Guarachi, and Dolehide got their highs thanks to others falling.
As for the others:
Gainesville $10K: This was an exceptional tournament for a LOT of American teens. Katerina Stewart won this tournament, but her jump was mitigated by the points from her final run at the same tournament in 2014 coming off. She has another 21 points coming off two weeks from now, so every result will be meaningful this spring. Sofia Kenin reached her first final at this tournament, bringing her into the Top 1000 for the first time; Ellie Halbauer, Ingrid Neel, and Alexa Graham all reached the quarters; and Rianna Valdes got to the second round. Kaitlyn McCarthy, meanwhile, won three matches in qualies, and then three three-setters in the main draw to earn a cool 4 points and enter the rankings for the first time! Congrats to all!
El Kantaoui $10K: In Tunisia, 18-year-old Jessica Ho won two matches back the week of March 3. Sometimes, it pays to go out of your way.
Indian Wells: Big jump for Sachia Vickery, thanks to her two-tiebreak win over Alla Kudryavtseva in the first round of Indian Wells.

Bjorn Fratangelo beat Gastao Elias in Indian Wells qualies and then qualified for the Irving Challenger, both of which counted in this week's rankings. If only he'd converted one of his match points against Coric in the Indian Wells final round of qualies...... Oh well, next year!
Dennis Novikov actually did qualify for Indian Wells, and is now in position to play Roland Garros qualies, which he's psyched about.
#219 in the world what's good. French open Qualies here I come.

And Taylor Harry Fritz recorded an impressive win over #109 Dudi Sela. Turned a lot of heads with that one.Alexander Sarkissian reached the final of Australia F2 and then the quarters of Australia F3 to burst into the Top 500.
Michael Grant got a first-round win at the Canada F1 event, while two-handed-on-both-sides Collin Johns makes this list for the first time this year after his quarterfinal in Nicaragua.
Paul and Spencer each moved up thanks to others falling down. We'll take it!
Edited to add! Daniel Nguyen reached the semis of the Canada F1 event, then won a round at CAN F2 to add to his haul, giving him his new career high ranking. Our apologize to Daniel and his loved ones for this error.
