Four British women in top 100 for first time in 21 years

There are four British women in the top 100 of the WTA Rankings for the first time in over 21 years.

Heather Watson's victory in the doubles competition at the Bank of the West Classic saw her move up to 71st in the latest rankings.

Anne Keothavong drops a place to 76th, while Laura Robson becomes the youngest player in the top 100 at 91st and Elena Baltacha just creeps in at 100.

The last four names from Britain to occupy places in the top 100 were Jo Durie, Sara Gomer, Sarah Loosemore and Monique Javer back in March 1991.
