Video: Elena Rybakina gives fans a wholesome preview of new YouTube channel
WTA
Former Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina has joined the new trend of athletes showcasing their lives on social media, as the Kazakh star appears to have launched a new YouTube Channel, titled Keeping Up With Lena.
The former World No.3 is not known for being extroverted on the court. Rather, Rybakina appears stoic during play, with her lack of emotion drawing a mixed reaction from fans and tennis pundits alike.

It is hard to dispute the fact that Rybakina leads an interesting life. The 25-year old travels around the world to compete at different tournaments, and undoubtedly has several unique encounters during her travels. It appears she now wants to chronicle her adventures, giving fans a behind the scenes look at what she does when she's not playing tennis.
Rybakina took to social media to post a little snippet of what to expect from her new YouTube channel. The World No.7 uploaded a video showing her riding a bicycle through a scenic path, with what appears to be her dog in a carrier behind her. Although brief, the video gives fans a quick glimpse of the quality of content to expect.
Currently competing at the Qatar Open, Rybakina powered past American Peyton Stearns to advance to the round of 16, where she'll face Slovakian Rebecca Sramkova.

- No, writer, we were not "stunned". If you knew your business you would have been aware of her statement last weekend re: her knee and retirement. The main take-away here is that Simona went out on her own terms. She surely wanted to play again after WTA & ITIA screwed her out of her final productive seasons. Personally, I believed she was going to make this announcement when I saw the President and his family in their box seats. Good for Simone -- now she can move on to other things as she said she would.mandoist04-02-2025
- It sounds seriously absurd that in Davis Cup, (unlike Grand Slams such as the Aus Open), medical time outs off court with the medical staff are not allowed?? I mean, if this was an Aus Open match, and the same thing happened to Gurin then, he would have been able to go off court for official medical time out and make an informed decision whether to resume the match or retire. How come such conditions do not apply in Davis Cup?? I mean, there with Davis Cup, it is even more like a soccer match or basketball game in that teams are playing. And so as with those, it ought to be the case in tennis that if a player needs serious medical time out, then one of the other team mates ought to substitute and each team needs to have stand-ins or understudies in case substitution is needed which will be rare but as we can see here, this kind of circumstance fits. But even if the teams do not go down the road of subbing other team mates in, in case of a health issue like the one which played out here, at least, as in the Aus Open and other Grand Slams, there ought to be time-outs with the health professionals and at the conclusion of these time-outs, the particular decision that has been reached between them and the player needs to be taken on board by the umpire. PERIOD.
