What a month it was for British No.1 Katie Boulter who continued to break new ground and make a statement on the WTA tour. March saw Boulter clinch her second tour-level title at the WTA 500 event in San Diego. The 27-year-old defeated four of the top seven seeds en route to the biggest title of her career, including Beatriz Haddad Maia, Emma Navarro and Marta Kostyuk.

This milestone saw her break into the world's top 30 for the first time and climb to a career-high ranking of world No.27.

As a results of a strong week in San Diego, Boulter then entered the Miami Open as a seeded player for the first time in her career, where she went on to reach the fourth round.

Could she be set for another stellar month in April?

The three-time Grand Slam champion reached the second round at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships after defeating Denis Shapovalov – marking his 500th hard court win. This achievement made him only the fifth player in the Open Era to do so, behind Rafael Nadal (517), Andre Agassi (592), Novak Djokovic (700) and Roger Federer (783).

He then went on to reach the second round at Indian Wells before knocking out former Wimbledon runner-up Matteo Berrettini and world No.30 Tomas Martin Etcheverry en route to the third round at the Miami Open.

Doubles – Olivia Nicholls
