Paola Longoria reaffirmed her position as the #1 Women's
Professional Racquetball Organization (WPRO)
player, when she won the California Open in Canoga Park earlier this month, and
the latest WPRO rankings confirm that. Rhonda Rajsich, who was runner-up to
Longoria in Canoga Park, remains the #2 player.
However, Kerri Wachtel has moved up into the #3 position ahead of Samantha
Salas, who's now missed two consecutive events due to an arm injury. Cristina
Amaya has also dropped in the rankings, falling from 6th to 8th.
Adrienne Fisher remains 5th, followed by Krystal Csuk in 6th, Susy
Acosta-Mendoza 7th, Amaya 8th, Jennifer Saunders 9th, and Angela Grisar in
10th.
Where's Cheryl Gudinas, former WPRO #1, you ask? She's dropped to 12th, although she did compete in the California Open, which was her first tournament after knee surgery, she lost to Saunders in the Round of 16. In fact, Gudinas is only 0.30 points ahead of T.J. Baumbaugh, who's 13th. It's Gudinas's lowest ranking for almost 20 years.
The next WPRO event is the Mile High Pro-Am in Denver, Colorado, March 8-11, 2012.
