They are ranked 767th, down from 744th the week before.

Their 457 points playing doubles equal 15 percent of their total score, added to 100 percent of their singles points.

Players earn points per round in tournaments, winning higher points the further into a tournament they advance.

Jarett Cascino of New York Tennis Magazine says tennis is one of the most competitive youth sports.

“There is always someone better than you on any given day, even if you are the number one player in the world!” he said.
