Martina Navratilova was impressed with Garbine Muguruza in Guadalajara and she thinks the Spaniard could lift a grand slam trophy next year.
Whenever a grand slam rolls around, the WTA draw is something polarizing. While there are the usual suspects when it comes to potential winners the situation is much more fluid than in ATP Tennis. A lot of tennis players are capable of winning it and if everything falls into place it can sometimes produce a spectacular run of forms.
Over the past couple of years, several players were able to win grand slam trophies as dark horses and Martin Navratilova seems to think that Muguruza has a pretty good chance in 2022. Speaking about the Spaniard she said:

“I think Muguruza after how she played in Guadalajara. Not just that
she won, but how she comported herself. Her relationship with Conchita
is really now paying nice dividends. Conchita is a great tennis mind,
and she’ll move her into becoming an even more complete player."
She further said:
“Garbiñe really wants it; she’s in a happy place. Her personal life
is settled, she has a supportive boyfriend and Conchita is amazing.
She’s in a really, really good place and I would be surprised if she
doesn’t win a major next year.”

- I predicted whenthe list was finalised that Linda Noskova would win the WTA Finals and her matches against Gauff and Kostyuk prove that. She is the best (underrated) player in the world!Rapunzel11-11-2026
- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.
mandoist09-11-2026 - Ironically, Martina became a U.S. Citizen about the same time as the Orange Convicted Felon & Abuser was just beginning on his road to losing all Daddy's Millions!!
mandoist09-11-2026 - "Another fresh start is in the cards." Thanks for the Humor!! I'm guessing this is the minimum one can do to keep all your sponsors hanging-on in perpetuity?
mandoist09-11-2026 - Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.
mandoist08-11-2026 - Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??
mandoist08-11-2026 - Wtf? Why is there no reason? And what about the men's?Bel08-11-2026
- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Enough of her bullshit. Go marry someone.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
