p De Minaur's victory moved him up to No. 7 in the PIF ATP Live Rankings, setting him up for a career high, while Boulter will remain just outside the WTA's Top 30 thanks to her successful title defence. Both players will be in action in Great Britain next week, with De Minaur at The Queen's Club and Boulter in Birmingham./p
