Both of Bulgaria’s top tennis players dropped with one place in the latest ATP and WTA rankings released on Monday.

The highest ranking Bulgarian female tennis player Tsvetana Pironkova dropped one place and currently occupies the 72^nd position.

Pironkova, who recently played her first Roland Garros quarterfinal, is close to qualifying for the main draw of the tournament in Birmingham after winning her match from the second qualification round on Sunday.

The highest ranking Bulgarian male tennis player Grigor Dimitrov dropped with one position to 37^th place.

So far, Dimitrov’s season has not been very successful. His most recent disappointment was last week when he was ousted from the first round in Stuttgart.
