Tennis legend Yevgeny Kafelnikov discussed who in the WTA tour is currently capable of competing with Kazakhstan's Elena Rybakina and Belarus's Aryna Sabalenka.
“Based on how the trend of women's tennis is developing, the only ones who can cause them some discomfort are Swiatek on clay — on hard courts, I think it’s unlikely right now — and Anisimova, because she has very appealing shots — you can see that she hits hard.
And now there’s also Mboko. Maybe there will be five, but no more,” Kafelnikov believes.
Aryna Sabalenka is the world number one, while Elena Rybakina has risen to second place in the updated WTA rankings.
