Wimbledon 2024 quarterfinalist ends season early at 28th place in WTA rankings
Former number one tennis player of Ukraine Elina Svitolina admitted that the 2024 season was prematurely ended for her due to injuries. The tennis player summed up her performances this year.
“I had a good season. I’ve already finished the season now because I got injured. To finish this year in the top 30 is a good result, considering that I was more [времени] “Injured this season.”
“The Olympics went well, unfortunately, I couldn’t bring home a medal, but there were great victories. Did I manage to approach the Games at the peak of my form, given the injury? No, I didn’t manage to do so at the peak. I didn’t play the way I wanted at the next tournaments either, because I was injured. I wanted more, I wanted to play better. Now I’m going to treat my injuries. I hope I can start my season better.”
Svitolina did not win a single title in 2024. In total, she played 48 matches, winning 30. She reached the quarterfinals of Wimbledon, and finished in the fourth round (1/8 finals) at two more majors (Australian Open and Roland Garros).
Elina also reached the 1/8 finals stage at the recent 2024 Olympics tennis tournament in Paris, losing in three sets to Czech Barbora Krejcikova. Svitolina’s last tournament was the 2024 US Open. She was eliminated in the third round, after losing in a three-set match to the 2023 tournament champion, American Coco Gauff.
In June, Elina lost her status as Ukraine’s No. 1 for the first time in a long time — Marta Kostyuk overtook her in the rankings. Svitolina, who turns 30 on September 12, ends the season at No. 28 in the WTA rankings.
