Many of the leading lights in the Porsche Race to Shenzhen were not in action last week as the grass court season began in the wake of the French Open.

Players who had gone deep in Paris took a week off to gather their strength before the build up to Wimbledon and the third Grand Slam of the year in little over a fortnight.

Among those to rest her legs was Ashleigh Barty, the Australian who shot to first place in the Grid thanks to her maiden major success in France. She retains top spots as none of her closest rivals played either, with a 650-point lead over second-placed Petra Kvitova.
