Yearly summary

edit

Rybakina started her 2024 season by winning the Brisbane International final against Aryna Sabalenka,[2] before going out in the second-round at the Australian Open to Anna Blinkova in a match that featured the longest tie-break in Grand Slam history.[3][4]

She won the Abu Dhabi Open in February, beating Daria Kasatkina in the final.[5] Rybakina secured her third title of the season in April at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in Stuttgart, beating two-time defending champion Iga Swiatek in the semifinals,[6] and then Marta Kostyuk in straight sets in the final.[7] She made it through to the quarter-finals at the French Open, before losing to eventual runner-up Jasmine Paolini.[8]

Moving onto the grass-court swing of the year, Rybakina retired due to illness during her quarter-final against Victoria Azarenka at the Berlin Ladies Open[9] and then withdrew from the following week's Eastbourne International.[10] At Wimbledon she steamrollered former world number one Caroline Wozniacki in just 57 minutes and for the loss of only one game in the third-round[11] before winning her round four match when opponent Anna Kalinskaya retired injured in the second set.[12]
