As usual on Wednesdays, the latest All-Athletics.com World Rankings were published today. Because of the recent World Indoor Championships there were many changes this week.

We are listing here just some of them, from the very top section, but it's worth browsing the very deep All-Athletics.com World Rankings (and the Area and other Rankings, too).

* Jessica Ennis of Great-Britain moved up to 2nd position in the Women's Overall Ranking

* There are two new event leaders: Dayron Robles (Cuba, 110/60m Hurdles) and Steven Hooker (Australia, Pole Vault)

* Four of the World Indoor Champions moved up to 2nd place in their respective event rankings: Deresse Mekonnen (Ethiopia, 1500m), Bernard Lagat (USA, 5000/3000m), Ivan Ukhov (Russia, High Jump) and Nadezhda Ostapchuk (Belarus, Shot Put).

* World Indoor 400m champion Christopher Brown of the Bahamas climbed to the 3rd position in the Men's 400m World Rankings.
