Tennis star Maria Sakkari questions the 'Big Three' dominance in women's tennis
WTAThursday, 23 May 2024 at 10:45
Greece’s tennis star Maria Sakkari has stated that she does
not believe in the talk of the ‘Big Three’ ahead of the French Open. The ‘Big
Three’ is the term initiated with the dominance of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal
and Novak Djokovic in men’s tennis. The term is being repeatedly used in the
women’s tennis in the recent past with the success achieved by the likes of
world number one Iga Swiatek, Belarus’ Aryna Sabalenka and world number four Elena
Rybakina.
Sakkari was recently quoted in a report where she stated
that she does not pay too much attention to the talk surrounding the ‘Big Three’
as she believes anyone can beat anyone in women’s tennis. “Iga has been incredible the last couple of years, but
everyone’s beatable and you can easily squeeze in there with one good week and
then things can be a lot different for you,” she said.
“I just feel like for
me, my main goal is to get into that top-three level and then everything for me
is possible. Iga is the most stable player right now, but I just feel like
everyone is playing good. And on a good day, everyone can beat anyone. So I
don’t really pay attention to that ‘Big Three’ talk, because I don’t think it’s
only three players at that level right now, it’s more than three.”
