Elena Rybakina will be part of the top-3 for the first time after Roland Garros.
The Kazakh player has been one of the most consistent performers on the tour in the past year, alongside Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka. Rybakina had to withdraw in the third round of the 2023 French Open before her match against Sara Sorribes Tormo due to a respiratory illness, despite being one of the top contenders, especially after winning the Rome Open.
Following the disappointment in France, with most of the results already determined, Rybakina will become part of the top-3 for the first time, as yesterday Beatriz Haddad Maia's victory over Ons Jabeur was confirmed.
Rybakina was greatly affected by Wimbledon's cancellation, where she was the defending champion, which delayed her progress in the rankings and her entry into the top-3.

Her excellent year has placed her second in the race to the WTA Finals, as she was also the champion of the BNP Paribas Open Indian Wells and a finalist in the Miami Open and Australian Open.
