       Nicole Gibbs and Kristie Ahn, both of whom led Stanford to the 2013 NCAA title, head the field for the $60,000 Stockton (Calif.) Challenger.
       Gibbs and Ahn are No. 117 and No. 118, respectively, in the new world rankings released today.
       Also entered in the Stockton Challenger, July 17-23 at the Eve Zimmerman Tennis Center on the University of the Pacific campus, is ageless wonder Kimiko Date of Japan.
       Date, 46, returned to competition in May after undergoing two operations on her left knee and missing 15 months. She climbed to a career-high No. 4 in 1995, retired in 1996, returned 12 years later and reached the semifinals of the inaugural Stockton Challenger in 2015.
       The $60,000 FSP Gold River Women's Challenger in the Sacramento suburb of Gold River is scheduled for July 24-30. The acceptance list has not been released, but it will be similar to Stockton's.
       Eighteen-year-old American Sofia Kenin, last year's Gold River champion, is entered in Stockton.
