Resting Sania Mirza's rankings continued to soar on the WTA charts as she climbed two places to be on 35th in the latest ratings announced on Monday.

The Indian tennis sensation, who is nursing multiple injuries, has 516.75 points.

After serving her country in the recent Fed Cup at Seoul despite her injuries, Sania will resume action just before the French Open championship to tune up for the clay court Grand Slam next month.

However, India's star Fed Cupper Shikha Uberoi slipped one place to 179 and the US-based player has 155 ranking points.

Delhi's Ankita Bhambri moved three places to 332, while another Fed Cup player Isha Lakhani was static at 363.

Among the men, Leander Paes lost five places to be on 14th while Mahesh Bhupathi maintained his 28th position in the doubles rankings.

In the top 10 list, Russian Nadia Petrova, who beat Justine Henin-Hardenne to clinch the German Open yesterday, overtook glamorous compatriot Maria Sharapova at number three.

Amelie Mauresmo of France was atop the table followed by Kim Clijsters of Belgium.
