The WTA banned Elena Rybakinas coach, Stefano Vukov for 8 months last year because Pam Shriver thought he was emotionally abusing her.
Rybakina and Vukov denied all of the allegations, on his return Rybakina has now won the AO title, USO Title and become the world No 1! 👏🏆🫡
Elena Rybakina's US Open title run is one of the most impressive I've ever seen.
Osaka. Zheng. Gauff. Sabalenka.
She beat three Grand Slam champions and an Olympic gold medalist.
The most deserving US Open champion and the new world #1. 🙌🏻
Rybakina d. Qinwen Zheng 3-6 6-1 6-4
ELENA GRABS THE WORLD NO. 1 RANKING.
She’s also into her first-ever US Open semifinal.
With how well she’s played over the last year, no one deserves the No. 1 ranking more.
Reigning WTA Finals Champion.
Reigning Australian Open Champion.
From last October to March this year, she won TWELVE consecutive matches against top 10 players…
7 of them were against the top 5.
2 were over the reigning World No. 1.
✅5th Grand Slam SF
✅47th win of 2026
Many sports journeys are loud, but Lena’s was decidedly quiet…
Until the whole world had to listen.
