Boulter eager to continue rankings rise after ‘very special’ San Diego win
Britain's Katie Boulter in action against Sweden's Caijsa Wilda Hennemann during day one of the 2023 Billie Jean King Cup play-off between Great Britain and Sweden at the Copper Box Arena, London, November 11, 2023

KATIE BOULTER has set her sights on pushing further up the rankings after winning the biggest title of her career.

The British number one defeated five top-40 players to win the San Diego Open, bringing her a first WTA 500 trophy and elevating her ranking to 27.

With Cameron Norrie slipping to 28, it means Boulter is the highest-ranked British singles player of either sex heading into Indian Wells, which begins on Wednesday.
